To get my goals set, I find it easier to tell someone what I'm doing, and then I really have to do it! So hear goes.... Training:- Forget about trying to convert unmeasurable training runs to Kilometres or Miles.(for us trail runners, it's just a hangover from our 10K days...) Up my average training hours per week to 12,throughout the year, with some more roads and trails. Make one of my runs at least 4 hours.(this will give me hours in the bank plus a couple of rest days) Get in some dawn running in the spring. (What could be better than to start your working day with a 2 hour blast of the 'hood.) Cut down on the caffiene and get to sleep by 23:00 at the latest. Ultra races:- Lord Hill 50K Snohomish, WA (Feb) Mountain Highway Madness (Gold?) Chuckanut Mountain 50K Bellingham, WA Diez Vista 50K E/B Ultra 50K Skyline XTC 50K Great Walk 64K ultra.(going for a three-pete win.) The Full Monty 50K.(I'm not doing it alone!) Great Lake Walk 56K.(Lake Cowichan) Javelina Jundred (100 Miles in Arid-Zona.) H2H (maybe?) Plus as many CFA events as I can squeeze in, i.e. the Bunny and the M&M If I can do all of those I will be one happy Jackal. I Love This Sport!

The on-going plan.
I have decided to be a lot less specific for 2007.
I was quite happy with the way the plan panned out last year so I have decided to keep it simple and strive to stay in the ten hour club, and try to maintain a good base so that I can ENJOY most if not all the runs and races that I hope to enter in the coming year.
Here's hoping that the CFA can learn to run itself and that Ms.S can meet her fitness goals, and not have to babysit us on this website!
Ten hours a week of active exercise is not too much, is it?
