Well having accomplished my IM goal, and dealing with serious time constraints due to work and circumstances, I have decided that next year my focus will be for Sprint distance races. They are short, fun, and do not require as much training time as Ironman distance races.
Also I have traditionally done relatively well always placing in the top 20% without specifically training for them . So I figure to do better than that once I do train for them. As such this off season I am developing a strength training program to help me develop power, thus more speed. I am also training to PR on a 10K in December.
I think this should give me enough focus for now to keep me going and also give me the room I need to take care of life.

A Time for a Change
Hi All,
Its been so long since I have posted. Very long. My life has been in real turmoil the past few months, between a merciless job, and some very serious life issues that were screaming to be resolved, I just did not have time for anything such as training or even posting here.
Anyhow little by little things are falling into place. I have seen life can be pretty freaken good, and things are changing. In time I will be able to give more details, but enough to say the changes are deep and substantial. Although sometimes change is very hard, it also offers hope for better days. I am truly looking forward to it.
Cheers to all
