    My New Years Resolution is to keep my shots in the black.... Also less walking since my targets will have to be much closer.

    I am already working on losing the weight. But I want to shoot more, and stop barely surviving. I may be in constant pain, but I want to start enjoying life a little. This pushing to find side jobs just to not lose things, eating the wrong foods for me from the food banks because I can not afford to buy groceries, and being unable to keep on bills, has all got to stop.

    who may yet be kicked out of the Republik of Kalifornia for owning too many firearms.

    I didn't claw my way to the top of the food chain, to eat only vegetables!

    Any New Year Resolutions/goals?

    Hey OeldeWolf—
    You’re gonna have some company in your state of affairs pretty soon.
    The Federal Reserve has granted loans in excess of $500 billion to some big banks just in the last 3 months. They’re on the road to making Americans poor again.
    Might just happen this year.

    Why make a resolution when I'm not going to keep it?

    There is only one person responsible for this!

    Not really resolutions, just moving the goalposts on last years (achieved) goals.

    - run a 10k at 8:00/mile pace or faster
    - run a 15k at sub-9:00 pace (will eventually become 8:00 or faster)
    - increase 1RM for bench, squat, deadlift (will eventually taper this one off, but looking for incremental progression toward a long-term target)
    - not really a goal, but in pursuit of the above, full/max participation Squatober and Deadcember (ie, getting in the gym every weekday I can for the workouts). I achieved that this year with good results, plan to rinse and repeat in pursuit of moving up the 1RM. If I hit the 1RM target early, try to make that weight become a 3RM or 5RM.
    - improve capacity on certain workouts. I'm "good" where I am, I want to be better and have targets in mind.
    - attend at least two training courses, one for shotgun, one for pistol; try to get to a KD Appleseed
    - improve timing and accuracy on certain drills (Appleseed PQT, FAST test, Walkback drill)

    I did most of that in 2019 (not necessarily meeting the above speed or weight targets). I'm going to do it in 2020, just (hopefully) better than I did last year.
