Right now finishing my first IM and going sub 20 in a 5K sound doable.

I am shooting for Memphis Tri in may 2010 Olympic distance. I have no previous training or experience so it will definetly be a challenge.

We have one goal in common - not get hurt.I said I would wait til 2012 to do a marathon but I may try in '10 b/c I want a sub 3 hour and my age ain't helping me. I would be happy with a 3:10

I want to do a sprint tri at 23.x mph avg.

My big goal is a sub 18 5k.

I want to run over 1000 miles (PR)

Shed 40 more pounds (get down to 220),Doable in a year I suppose. Just SBR more and more. Do some sprints and be as fast as I can. Build the discipline it takes to workout all the time. Find balance in my life with all of my obligations. Get a new job!

I have two main goals for 2010, and a couple things I'm considering...

1. I'd like to improve my running pace significantly. I'd like to be around 6:30/mile (or less).

2. I'd like to complete a HIM at Deer Creek next fall.

Other than that, if I'm up for it at the end of the season...I might go for the Columbus marathon. I'm not going to commit to that yet though. For now it is just a thought in the back of my mind.

Another thing I'm working towards currently (not necessarily a 2010 goal), is that I'm trying to get a six pack back. I've been working on my core pretty hard this offseason so far. I'm hoping to have it back by next spring...my diet might ruin me there though.

Absolutely doable. Good luck, it is quite an acomplishment in its own right.

I've been thinking about tris for two years now and haven't taken the plunge. 2010 is going to be the year I get it done. I want to do a sprint, olympic and HIM (Cedar Point) all next year. Another goal is to do a race each month, I'm actuallly starting that with a turkey trot on Thanksgiving morning. I'm pretty sure I have most of the year figured out except for January and February.

Drop another 35-40 pounds myself.  I would like to start with a couple of Aquabikes and finish the season with a sprint tri.  I know they're not big goals, but a year ago I couldn't even swim 100 yards.  Just did 1500 this morning!

My first goal is to get rid of my achilles tendonitis.  If that happens, I should accomplish my second goal--to finish my first HIM in less than 6 hrs.

I've got a full race season planned: Oly in Knoxville, TN in May - Rev3, Registered HIM in Connecticut in June - Rev3, Registered Two Olys in August - Cleveland Tri, Greater Cleveland Tri A full IM in Sept - Cedar Point, registered! A full IM in Nov - IM Florida, registered! Getting fitted for a new bike then will save up for it and hope to buy by March. Plan to focus more (most) on my bike training. Hope to amp up the training to a higher level for the IMs - stay injury-free and NOT overtrain. Tough balance but I've got some down-time built in to my plan.That's it!

early May half-marathon - 1:52 goal (PR so far is 1:55)

June HIM - Hopefully closer to 6 hours. (PR so far is 6:18)

Complete first IM (Sept. Cedar Point on my birthday)

I think that's enough for one year!

I'm up in the air right now.  I want to kill the Miami sprint tri- just kill it.  And not walk up that darn hill!  I should start moving to OLYS this year...but I'm afraid of running.  So to counter that I've started on the Sprint 20 week run focus program....and maybe do the Cols 1/2 Marathon.  I signed up for the flying 4 miler on TGiving so I guess it gets me a discount for the Marathon.

I really want to do the Disney Princess 1/2 in 2011 so I guess I had better suck it up and start loving that pavement!

My only goals as of right now are to put in as many miles as possible and work on my higher HR zones. I am planning on 1000+ miles of running, 5000k of biking and as much swimming as possible. I would like to do another half marathon and maybe a marathon if I feel I am ready. Possibly a HIM if I can race it and not just try to finish it. No IM for me until 2011 or later.
