I don't set goals for the year. Rather the continual goal to get in better shape. I have several specific goals; Ride a century, Backpack the Grand Canyon Rim to Rim (not day hike), Climb Mt. Humphreys one more time, Do some bike touring, Start weightlifting, 10 pull-ups (seriously).

So how do I rate my efforts in 2016?

I increased my weekly mileage from 50-60 to just over 100. Someone commented that when they rode 100 mi/wk they almost never got sick and felt great. I may be overtraining though. Went thru a period where legs felt tired a lot. Slowed my pace but kept the miles up and it got better. Other minor injuries to work through or around. Changed my stretching routine to match the new injuries. Currently riding at an easy pace again.

Increasing the bike mileage has reduced my hiking mileage slightly. The problem is do I spend the time riding or hiking? Still go for short hikes on the weekend.

Started weightlifting twice. Both times pushed myself too hard and stopped after 4-5 weeks. Similar results with calisthenics. Not giving up but it is frustrating to have to stop for a while then start again trying to find a way around my problems. On the plus side I couldn't do any pull-ups or chin-ups at the beginning of the year. I can do 2 chin-ups now.
