12WBT - Pre-Season Task 7 - Organise and Diarise

There are never enough hours in the day, so getting organised is key.  If you have training in your diary as appointments, you are much more likely to stick to them.

I know generally how my next three months will look (in terms of big events/trips etc), in terms of precise training times though, I'll be planning out a few weeks at a time, as the amount of work I have on at any one time can change.  I will be going overseas at the end of Week 6, so will be training harder the first half of the 12WBT.

My major red flags:
End of Week 3: Road trip from Gold Coast to Sydney.  I'm flying up then driving back with my car which has been in Queensland at my Mum's ever since I moved to Sydney.  Staying overnight in Port Macquarie.
Week 7 + 8: Trip overeas to Finland + Vienna
End of week 8 - just as I get back: Friend's 30th + Mum and Aunt's birthday
Week 11 + 12 (and 13): Trip overseas to U.S.

My milestone events / goals:

Week 4:
Jog 1km without stopping
Have taken a learn to rollerskate class (something I have wanted to do for a while)

Week 8:
Jog 5km without stopping

Week 12: (I'll be in the US)
Go rollerskating on Santa Monica Boulevard
Hike up Runyon Canyon in LA (it's not that big a hike, but I have to pick somewhere easily accessible in LA without a car!)
Jog 7km without stopping
