Pilates and Crossfit:  I set a goal to do free pilates and free Crossfit through work at least once a week.  It hasn’t been perfect, but I’ve made it to pilates twice this month, and although I haven’t officially gone to Crossfit, (1) my husband (who does Crossfit several times a week) made a Crossfit-style workout for me which we did in our gym and (2) I’ve been going to Orangetheory pretty religiously up to twice a week to try to use up some classes that are expiring soon.  So I think I get half credit for this one.

Green Mountain:  I am on track for my goal to summit Green Mountain 50 times this year – 4 down and 46 to go.  In January, I ran it twice as part of longer runs (the Boulder Skyline Traverse and the Three Peaks Loop) and twice on its own (both times followed this route: Gregory Canyon to Ranger to Greenman to Saddle Rock to Amphitheater).  In my original post, I wrote about how it took me 2.5 hrs to do a loop of Green at the end of July 2017 when I first tried to run it with one of the local running groups.  In short, it was a miserable experience.  Well, I tried the same loop solo on January 28, and it not only was less miserable, but I didn’t get lost and it took me about 2 hrs. — 30 minutes less!  And for that run the trails were covered with snow and ice.  (I wore my Yaxtrax and only fell once.).  So I’m on my way!
