Goodbye 2016, Hello 2017!

~ GOODBYE 2016 & HAPPY 2017 ~

Happy New Year to everyone. Time passes quickly and 2016 is already over. For 2016, I set only 3 objectives and I sort of achieved all of them.

A wise man once mentioned that we should set stretched targets so that we can keep chasing them. If we set "realistic" targets, then these targets might potentially be set lower than what we are capable of. So for 2017, my objectives remain the same as per 2016, but the standards will be set higher this time round. Let's see if I can achieve these Personal Best (PB) for 2017. :)

My Objectives for 2016

• Aimed and achieved Silver Grade for IPPT(Apr) (annual cardinal requirement)
• Aimed and completed Craze Ultra 101km (Sep) within 22 H.
• Finally decided to participate in SCMS (Dec) in Sep/Oct. Aimed to complete the race, and if possible, hope to complete within 6:00H. I only manage to complete SCMS within 7H. :(

My Objectives for 2017

• Gold Grade for IPPT (Apr). [Never attain GOLD for the revised IPPT system]
• Complete Craze Ultra 101km (Aug) within 21H. [2016 was the first year I completed the race]
• Complete SCMS (Dec) with 5:30H. [Local Marathon PB timing is 5:25H]

So, did you reviewed your objectives/accomplishment for 2016? If not, it is a good time to review and set your objectives for 2017.
