This is of course becoming somewhat of a tradition, this whole year in review thing.

So, let me try to continue.

Looking at last year I wanted to ride 5,000 miles and ride more than drive the Jeep. I was able to do the 5k on the bike, however it looks like the Jeep had 9,123 miles put on it last year. Something to work for this year perhaps. It was borrowed heavily for a couple months.

I also mentioned a few events that I wanted to do. I didn't get around to any of the races, but did do the Mt. Baker Hill Climb (2:07), RAPSODY (12:30), and took a beginning track class. Part of me is still on the fence regarding the whole racing thing. The big thing being is it worth the risk of injury. That and being witness to the last Boat Street tragedy made me think about things too.

For this year, I think I'd really like to focus on sprint triathlons, and perhaps to help egg that on I'll write some "training" related posts to so I can record what I've been doing and gauge that against the results that I get. Here's the Washington Triathlon Calendar for reference.

I'll finish up with the usual numbers, again these are really more for my benefit when I'm 65 and wondering where my health went.

  • wt: 182lb
  • 42 pushups (1min)
  • cholesterol: 171 (Tri: 71 HDL: 58 LDL 105)
  • glucose: 82
  • miles biked: 5,316 (426 on the trainer)
  • books read: 5
  • Resting Heart Rate: 52bpm
Happy new year everyone.
