It’s hard to believe that we’re already facing the first Monday of July and Independence Day is tomorrow! This year is flying by–as I’ve mentioned each month when I sit down to write my goals. Even with the days flying by, I feel like I’m ticking a lot of things off my goals list this year. Let’s see how I did in June!
ONE // Catch up on housecleaning
Grade: A
Finally being out of school gave me enough time to get my house clean!
TWO // Read two more books
Grade: C
Well, I read one more book. I’m in the middle of the second. Hmm… Wonder if I’ll get through my summer reading list…

THREE // Plan the first month of training for the Run Disney Wine & Dine Half Marathon
Grade: A+
I posted my Wine & Dine Half Marathon Training Plan for the first month, and have already planned the first week of August. My schedule will change beginning the second week of August, so moving forward from there will be more of a challenge.
FOUR // Find an eye doctor and schedule an appointment
Grade: A+
Did this! Even ordered contacts and I can SEE again!
FIVE // Eat clean 90% of the time
Grade: A
For being my first month out of school, I did a pretty good job of sticking to my prepped meals and not eating junk all day. I did start tracking my food/macros a couple of weeks in, just to keep a better handle on things.
ONE // Stick to my training program
I know I’m probably not going to make every workout I’ve scheduled, but I want to be as committed as I can be. I’m ready, I’m excited, and I can’t wait to check off my first training run (today!). See my plan for the first five weeks of half marathon training!
TWO // Put together my classroom
I can get the keys to my new classroom next week and I want to get all the organizational stuff out of the way early so I’m not scrambling in August.
THREE // Get a BUNCH of future blog posts scheduled
To put it simply, I want to write and schedule as many posts as possible before school starts so I don’t lag on blogging and can spend appropriate time promoting myself and interacting with other bloggers!
Related: Balance.
FOUR // Enjoy vacation!
This probably seems like a goal that could achieve itself, but I wanted to include it anyway. We are going on vacation in the early stages of my half marathon training, so I don’t want to beat myself up for enjoying the time away and taking my mind OFF of running and training.
FIVE // Eat clean 90% of the time
I think this will always be a goal. I tend to go overboard with mindless snacking in the summer, so I need to post it for accountability!
Question: What goals have you set for the month of July?
You did pretty good, girl!! One of my goals for this month is to also get ahead on blogging so that I won’t be in a rush once school starts up again. It’s always so hectic and hard to try to get back on a routine.

Yes! It’s so hard to keep up with school and blogging at the same time.
I love how you grade all of your goals! A true teacher 🙂
I’m right there with you on the clean eating goal. I haven’t been able to find what’s “best” for me yet but slacking off and eating junk hasn’t helped over the last few weeks lol.
Happy 4th of July!
Thank you so much! Happy 4th to you as well!
I also need to get on top of and ahead of my blogging schedule so I’m not scrambling around. If I could get a good month of posts ready and scheduled and then only have to post my weekly recap once a week, that would be great. I have an editorial calendar and a plan every month, but I haven’t found the time to sit down and just write them! Ugh.
I’m running the Wine & Dine 10k with a friend (we did the 10K and half together last year). Can’t wait! Best of luck on your half training.
I need to sit down and write as well. I intend to do it every day, yet it still hasn’t happened!
