December's Goals and Dare

November has been a great month.  I ran my first half marathon and set a new PR on my 5k.  I have also ran 105 miles. 

December is going to be that much better.  I have to lose 10 pounds to hit my goal of 100 pounds lost for the year. 

Here are a few of my goals for December:
1. PR on my next half marathon on Dec 18th
2. Run 5 days a week for the whole month
3. Run 110 miles
4. Cross train at least twice a week
5. Do amazing at my new job
6. Lose 10 lbs to hit my 100 lbs goal

So here is where you all come in.  If I do not hit my weight loss goal, I am going to have to do something, and I want you all to put something in the comments below. My wife will pick the best 3 things, and if I do not hit the goal, I will have to do one of those things.  We will put the top three things up to vote.  It could be anything from shave my head, wear a dress to work, run in a tutu for a week.  After you put you suggestion my wife will screen them and select 3.  I can't be running naked or anything.  :)  We will take photos and post pictures if it happens.... IF

I need this little bump to get past this funk I have been in with the weight loss.  The running has been going great!

Run two miles or so down the busiest street in your town in an outrageous outfit. Hot pink tights, tutu, etc. You wife will video tape it and post it on your blog!

I like James and Jeni's comment but will have to give it some thought!

Stage a protest at McDonalds against the letter M. The giant letter M makes all the other letters in alphabet feel bad. You'll need a picket sign at the very least!

You should dress up as that Nacho Libre guy that you posted a video of and run in those clothes for a week (not at night...that's cheating). Plus it gives you the excuse to say that line about stretchy pants! LOL

You can wear my tutu. Why are you requiring 5 days a week? That sucks the fun out of it. Go 6 if you want. Or 3. Quality is more important than quantity. Run 110 or 210.... just make them count. PR's? Hell yeah, knock em out. Love that. Cross train? That will benefit you more than you know. Do amazing at your job? C'mon dude.... you're a runner, how else you gonna do it? 10lbs?? Do me a favor and throw the scale out the window.... you don't need it anymore. I know that you won't do that so, best of luck with ALL of these goals. Let me know about the tutu.....

Organize a run/protest to "Occupy Love Handles". You'd need signs and shirts and such. And probably pink tights and a cape.

No reason for a dare...you WILL make it. Now, get to work!

I don't have any great idea about what you have to do if you don't meet your goal, but I agree with the other poster -- make the goal to do those things you've listed, not the weight loss. You're building a LOT of fitness and health.

I'll be watching to see how it goes!

I say combine most (if not all) of the challenges above. Occupy Love Handles at McDonald's protesting the letter M while wearing a pink ballerina outfit and holding a protest sign. I'll be sure and call the local TV stations and let them know you're there!! Love what you and Jen are doing Chris! Keep up the good work!
