Champion 5781 Northridge, California | Subject: RE: What are your BIG tri goals this year?? Main tri goal is to finish my 2nd IM (St. George, May 1)...and to get to the starting line without tripping and injuring myself like I did three weeks before my first IM. Wouldn't mind qualifying for AG Nationals at some point...just missed last year. But this is really marathon year for me...hoping to qualify for Boston 2011 (as a 50 y.o.). First attempt coming up at LA in March. If I miss there, then probably a 2nd try in the fall in Sacramento. |

Expert 1394 Wilmington, NC | Subject: RE: What are your BIG tri goals this year?? Did 3 races in my 1st season last year and I am already aging up, turn 40 this year so I would like to win my AG in races I do. I ended my 1st year last year with an AG win, so I figure aging up I should have a shot. I also want/wanted to qualify for Team USA for World Long Course Champs in 2011 which will be in Vegas baby. The qualifier is this October in Myrtle Beach. I say want/wanted because it is starting to look like I will be relocating from NC back to GA in August, but that is all up in the air so I will just have to play the year my ear. |

Veteran 698 | Subject: RE: What are your BIG tri goals this year?? My goals are rather simple: Improve my swimming from couch potato to athlete (gonna have to be able to swim more then a few pool lengths at a time, right...?) Get back into running when my knee is "fixed" (my IT Band and Patella seem to have issues...) Train for my first triathlon, probably a sprint or a mini sprint. Fall in love with it, and move on to Olympic distance. Get my wife and kids into triathlons. If I can do all that, then world peace should be a snap. |

Expert 904 | Subject: RE: What are your BIG tri goals this year?? My last tri was almost 2 years ago, so in a way I consider myself a sort of newbie again. I had a baby last year and my husband is deploying this year so it has been a rough year and is going to be a rough year when it comes to training. Although my goal my seem simple to some, right now it seems it may be very tough. My one goal is to not finish last in any of my tris. |

Veteran 200 Hudson Valley, NY | Subject: RE: What are your BIG tri goals this year?? It's my first full season too. Only did 1 sprint last year, and was totally hooked! 1) Finish a 10K in April 2) Drop my time by at least 15 minutes in the sprint (comparable distances, of course, and compete in 3-4 sprints this season) 3) Finish an Olympic distance tri 4) Finish a half-marathon in the Fall (if I do that, I will plan a half-ironman next year). 5) and to stay healthy doing all of this - no injuries, please!!
