Do pretty much in 2019 what I did in 2018, but do it better, be more consistent, more intervals, etc. I was on a statin last year and came down with PMR, so this should be doable. We'll go on a hub-and-spoke bike tour with friends in June in the Spokane-Coeur d'Alene area. We'll do our usual mountain rides and then RAMROD on my single. In early September, we'll do our annual 10-day packpack. We missed doing it last year because I was such a mess. We might even squeeze in an unsupported camping tour in June. Have to see how our conditioning comes. Definite maybe.
2) Bike tour on our tandem went fine. Felt stronger than on the tour last year.
3) Placed about the same on RAMROD this year as last and had about the same time. At my age, that's a win.
4) Did the backpack. Went well even though the weather sucked. Managed to do almost all the miles when it wasn't raining.
5) The camping tour didn't happen. Maybe this year.

I'm just starting to run again after nearly a year off.
I am cycling occasionally, but we still haven't done a 50 km ride.
I have been trying to climb more stairs and built up to about 15 flights on occasion.
I'm about 300 km behind last year, but have hit the 1000 km point!
Through a combination of pilates, rowing, and weights, I hope I'm improving the upper body and core strength, and perhaps my flexibility too.

Walking Total: 1086.6 km
Rowing Total: 109.2 km

Goal: Really, really hoping for a better year than 2019!!
