Win my AG in a sprint or oly with at least 30 people in my AG

Bike split in a sprint over 39km/h

At least as many bike km (~4000) as last year

Hold faster than 4:00/km for the run in a run >= 5km.

Standalone 5km time under 18:30.

 

I think pretty much any of the performance goals will get me to the #1 goal, I nearly had it this year.

If this was in July last year, my goals would include certain races, bike splits, run splits, etc. After my stress fracture in October though, my goal for 2012 has turned to get back to a good running form, get back the power on the bike and, well, learn how to swim (I'm getting pretty good at avoiding drowning for a km though!).

Move up in my age group at bigger races. That is my cop out answer.

Real answer:

sub 3 at my next marathon (which happens to be Boston)

Qualify for 70.3 championships.

Do IMAZ in a time that puts me within spitting distance of a Kona slot.

These are all reach goals but if you don't aim high..........

Crush my enemies, see them driven before me, and hear the lamentation of their women.

 

Also, win a bet between my friends (I.E. beat my friends) in a 5k and a sprint tri.

50 hours of each discipline in the year.

Complete the high uintas challenge, 80 mile road race.

Not get crushed by over 6 minutes in a sprint by my wife.
