Keeping Myself Accountable in 2008

[RoadRaven]

....so here is my 2008 "accountability thread" update

Carless weeks - 8 (each week is 7 consecutive days sans motorised transport).

ACHIEVED: 1 week so far... nearly two if I can hold out for 3 more days!



Hills
- Climb Tiropai (300metres @ average 7.5%) in 2.45mins
ACHIEVED: Did this in 2:40 on April 10, so room to get faster before years end

- Glengarry return (approx 65km with gradients of up to 14%)
ACHIEVED: whew, did this on 25th March... what a grind, but I did it, no stops or walks... But I actually enjoyed it even though it took me 2:44:38
I want to do this again, but next time will ride from home which will add an extra 20km and several more hundred metres of climbing


Events
- Tremain Team Tri (cycling only ) 32kph
ACHIEVED: Woohoo - great day this one. I averaged 34.02kph over the 19.3km course. I rocked. And what was even sweeter was that the team I raced with rocked - we were the second all-female team home... we did have a ranked swimmer but so did the first-place-team... they also had a ranked runner and an U19 cyclist. So all in all, not a bad effort at all!

So I have 13 cycling goals, and have achieved 4 already... not too bad girls
