Is it too early to start getting excited for 2020?
I’m putting together some big professional, personal, and of course, active goals. Professionally, my business is growing and with Laura joining the team, we hope to achieve a greater work-life balance in 2020!
As for my active goals, 2019 was a really good year for me. Several PBs (including the half marathon!) has me eager to see what I can accomplish next year. Run Waterloo has a unique way of measuring performance with RW Boost. This year I bested my 2018 score – in the hoodie zone both years – and I hope to increase my score again in 2020. To achieve this, I know it will require training, dedication, participation, trying some new things, and some PBs along the way to earn enough points to beat my 2019 score!
As you know, I’m a big fan (and sponsor) of Run Waterloo. I really believe in the mission and the community and I’m happy to be involved. So my goals tie into the great giveaway I have this month:
2020 Membership Contest
Post your active 2020 goal(s) in the Blue Tuesday facebook event. Two contestants as of December 2 at 9 p.m. will win a 2020 membership ($50 value). If you have already purchased a membership, you can gift it to a friend.
I’m really looking forward to seeing what everyone is planning for 2020!
For my goal, the RW Boost program is just one of the many, many benefits of a Run Waterloo membership. I’m already registered and you should too – maybe with a free entry!

1st Boston Marathon and 1st FULL EndurRun! Big goals this year! Hoping to make it through these in one piece – coming back from injury.
Thanks Lindsay! Great goals!
I want to keep staying active and continue on my journey to be a healthier person. This would contribute to my goals a lot
Great goals Pamela! Thanks for sharing!
Finish well at the 2020 Canadian Mountain Running Championship Golden, BC (Kicking Horse) and Barrelman Half Ironman!!!! Aiming big!
Wow! That is aiming big! That is awesome!!
I am continuing doing half marathons. I am increasing my mileage so I can complete the Half EndurRun (80 km). I am more focused on eating healthier and staying injury free!!!
Great goals Angela! Thanks for sharing! I’m also interested in the Half EndurRun!
2020 will be the year I bounce back! It’s time to put the work in. This would help keep me on track. My goals are small in comparison to others. I would like to run a sub 30 5 km and run another half marathon.
Thank you for the opportunity Michael!
Thanks for sharing Kelly! You can do it!
I am hoping to complete my first marathon distance!
Thanks for sharing Mandi! Any particular marathon in mind?
I turned 50 years young this year and am hoping to complete my first full marathon while still in my 50th year! I have until May 2020!
Thanks!! That is so amazing!!
What great goals. Thanks Mike for getting this conversation started!
Get back into running after a couple of injuries.
Thanks for sharing Mike! Hopefully you can stay injury free once back!
“Active goals for 2020” include trying to get my 5km time back to where it was pre baby and pre broken ankle. Also, lifting more weights and trying to incorporate something weekly I’ve havent done before- like swimming or badminton!
These are all great goals Katie! Thanks for sharing!
Do my PB in a 5k and 10K!
Awesome! Thanks for sharing Jana!
My goal is to do my first marathon! A i’m 21 and have done a half marathon the last 2 years and hoping to step it up to a full. It’s hard to fit training in with school (Pharmacy) but I will be going on a co-op work term January-April and am hoping I will find a more consistent schedule to stick to!! I’ve convinced my mom to train for the half and working on my dad and one of my friends. As summer rolls around I want to test out some triathlon training (I HATE swimming) and see how that goes! Best of luck to me haha
Thanks Caitlin! Sounds like you have a great crew to cheer you on and keep you motivated so you can achieve your goals!
I’d really just love to run happy and healthy. But my secondary goals are to run my 3rd marathon and first in Canada at Toronto Waterfront and working towards a sub 1:50 half marathon.
Finally beat my old half marathon PB after 2 years 1 month and 16 days.
Thank you for sharing Alison! I agree happy and healthy is important!
Set PB in 10k (current PB is 42:00) and finish in top 10 in RW Boost in 2020. I’d like to also take a run at beating my record for the Baden Hill Sprint (part of the Baden Road Races).
Thanks Greg! Challenging yet achievable!
I want to run a faster 10 km race!
