Is it too early to be setting my goals for 2013? They’re effectively new year’s resolutions – but we’re only half way through December.
Too bad if it is – I’m flying out out the country in a week and I don’t think I’ll be paying much attention to my fitness goals in the week leading up to 1 Jan. So, ladies and gentlemen, I present you with my thirteen new (endorphin-seeking) experiences for 2013:
- Run my first race
- Try a mixed martial arts class
- Try a pole fitness class
- Try a spin class
- Go skydiving
- Try a beginners/intro crossfit course
- Try a yoga class
- Try a pilates class
- Go bungy jumping
- Try indoor rock climbing
- Buy a bike
- Sign up for boot-camp style group training
- Try an aqua/pool-based fitness class
As you can see, it’s a bit of a taster plate of things to try. A sampler of fitness activities, if you will.
It highlights just how limited my fitness experiences have been to date – I feel like the only woman in the city who hasn’t at least taken a pilates class!
How can I really decide what I like, and what drives me if I haven’t tried much?
Don’t get me wrong, I like running – but how do I know I won’t love something more without trying more?
What are your plans or goals? Are there any new experiences on your 2013 to-do list?
It’s not too early. I planned my 2013 races in November. I do want to do a triathalon and maybe mountain climbing.
What a great list of new things to try! I love that idea, and might just have to make one of my own.
perfect timing. I’m thinking of doing an official list this week
That’s a great list…I think I will make one for myself
Sweet List. I think list lof new experiences is going to include riding a bike to work and possibly entering an amateur fitness competition.
Enjoy…plenty to work with, so have fun doing them!

my 2013 goal is to try crossfit; i start in january. would love to hear about your experience. good luck!
All of these goals are great! It sounds like 2013 is going to be a great year.
Nice list – try bodybuilding too
Exhale Yoga on NE Alberta has a nice small/intimate “karma yoga” class on Fridays around noon that are great – karma meaning free
– then you can explore Alberta after for some great bites to eat!

I haven’t tried Pilates yet either, and water aerobics and water polo are my favorite workout classes
Water polo? I haven’t heard about that in years! (I tried out for my school team years ago… It didn’t go well)
