SSMinnow - 2009-12-31 12:53 PM Let's see, I officially had my largest biking month ever in December, mostly because I had my lowest running month since I started in 2003. Stress fractures suck.

I knew my running would be down in '09 when I became more of a triathlete and less of marathoner, but two injuries in '09 really killed me. My goal is to be injury free in 2010.  I am happy with the progress in swimming and biking. 

Really no prediction for volume in 2010.  I am leaving that all up to my coach to figure out.  I have officially consumed the Kool-Aid.

December's totals:
Bike:	38h 25m  - 659.4 Mi
Run:	15m 10s  - 2.3 Mi
Swim:	16h 42m  - 35300 Yd

2009 totals
Bike:	233h 33m 28s  - 4031.28 Mi
Run:	222h 38m 12s  - 1539.5 Mi
Swim:	193h 54m 06s  - 356573 Yd

2008 totals
Bike:	195h 07m 13s  - 3397.24 Mi
Run:	365h 29m 31s  - 2588.71 Mi
Swim:	118h 46m 09s  - 183090 Yd

My Race goal for 2010 - I'm not sure how to set a specific goal yet for Racine 70.3, but my general goal is to qualify for the IM 70.3 World Championships.

you could start with these numbers and go from there.  avg of the top 10 in your a/g at Racine last year.   doubt your a/g will have 10 clearwater slots.  roll down will be likely.  anyways... something in the neighborhood of what you're looking at,  i would suspect.   good luck!

JHagerman - 2009-12-31 10:51 AM My Totals:

December wasn't planned to be low volume/distance, but it does appear to have taken that route...  I still hit my running goal for the year.  I think my bike goal was 1500, but I*secretly*  wanted to hit 2k.  I swam more than double my 08 time and distance and I feel better about where I am right now with my swims.

So 2010:

I don't have a run 'goal' per-say.  I'm where I want to be with speed and endurance.  SO maybe I'll try to up it towards 600 or more miles.  But it's not my focus in 2010.

Bike - I want to nail the bike this coming year.  I'd love to break the 2k mark with style and increase my overall race avg speeds to 24/25 mph (up from about 16 mph in 2008)

Swim - My focus of 2010.  These last few months have been great for me in the water.  Now I just need to translate to OWS / Racing.  The swim has been my limiter for the last 2 years.  I would have placed higher in a couple key races this year if I could have taken -3 minutes off of my swim time.

My Race goal for 2010 - I'm not sure how to set a specific goal yet for Racine 70.3, but my general goal is to qualify for the IM 70.3 World Championships.  Otherwise, I'd like to race the Oly distance for a couple of race, just for fun (with the secret hope of a podium finish).  I'm thinking this year will also be my first full marathon. 

December's totals:
Bike:	3h 51m 11s  - 61.6 Mi
Run:	2h 00m  - 11 Mi
Swim:	3h 31m  - 9800 Yd

Strength:	15h 47

2008 totals

Run:	60h 58m 24s  - 400.33 Mi

I wasn't ready to see those numbers yet.  Thanks for getting it organized for me.  Yeah, my AG is a tough one!  I think that the bike and run are within my capabilities, but I've got a lot of work to do at the swim. 

CyborgQueen - 2009-12-31 7:31 AM Am I allow to squeal like a girl...especially I *am* a girl?


I just finished registering for my first Triathlon in May!

*squuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuueeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllllllllls*

I wish I could go out for a nice run today...but alas, it's snowing in East coast. I so cannot wait to get back to Las Vegas and get a start on swim training as well.

I am such a geek, I got let out of work super early today and I am sure everyone else was planning to get their drink on early but what was I excited about?  Getting to the gym and having the pool all to myself!  It was glorious!  I did 1650m continuously to use it as a baseline since I want to get under 35 minutes, did it in 40 min 40 sec so I have my work cut out!  Feeling much less guilty about all of the treats and bubbly tonight!  Everyone have fun and be safe tonight!

gdctex - 2009-12-31 5:10 PM LOL.... Geek or not, it is wonderful to get a good swim in without waiting for or sharing a lane.
