goals for 2011

i decided today that it was time to give you an update on my goals. i've accomplished all that i set out to do at the beginning of this year - ride 4020 miles and ride 20+ miles at or above 22mph. i've also met my mid-year goal of beating the skinny kid's time in a 10K. i still need to ride a few more miles to make it to 8040 miles before all of 2010's targets are bullseyes, but that will come.

so now i'm dreaming about 2011.

i've actually been thinking about next year for some time. this past week, i decided, if the Lord is willing, that i will ride 5000 on my bike and run 1000 miles. i'd also like to ride 200 miles in one day and run a half marathon or a marathon. while training for either or both of these running events, i'd like to continue to improve my 5K and 10K times. i really like these shorter races and don't want to sacrifice speed in them while working for longer distances. i have some times in mind, but need to decide for sure before i post them.
