Assessment

If there were any uncertainty before about whether or not lifting has brought results, note that on December 8th, 2006 I listed these quantifiable goals:

2mi in 14:00
200m in 0:26
100m in 0:12
Bench-press 135lbs

On both July 7th and August 17th, 2007 I ran a sub-14:00 2mi. Yesterday, I ran a 0:11.45 100m and a 0:24.46 200m. Those times may be slightly off, because I was timing myself and using an iPod. However, I think they are pretty close. Today, I benched 140 (but 145 was too much). It feels good to achieve goals, and it will be exciting to set new ones.
