    Keeping Myself Accountable in 2008

    Yup, I did one of these last year, and the year before, and they have helped my motivation... so here is 2008's "accountability thread".

    The women here at TE continue to be a source of motivation and power to me... racers or not is irrelevant. You get on your bikes, set goals and achieve. Thank you.

    Here are my goals in a "nutshell"... (I am putting them here in the Race Results forum because my goals are primarily race focused and that is what I will mostly be talking about).

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

    Weight - currently 99kg, I want to be 90kg or less by December

    Hills
    - Climb Tiropai (300metres @ average 7.5%) in 2.45mins
    - Climb Dartmoor (500metres @ average 7%) in 4:30mins
    - Glengarry return (approx 65km with gradients of up to 14%)

    Power
    - Ramblers/Gisborne Interclub TT - average 32kph
    - Dartmoor TT - average 32.5kph
    - Dump Block TT - average 33kph
    - Club Champs TT - average 33.5kph

    Club Racing
    - Competitive (regularly) in "F" by the Winter Series
    - Interclub Champs ~ Ramblers/Gisborne - compete in all events
    - Club Championships - compete in both events

    Events
    - Tour de Beautiful (50km) - 2 hours
    - Tremain Team Tri (cycling only ) 32kph
    - Tour of the Bay (50km) 1.40 hours

    Total kms for year: 5300km


    Now, I am well underway with my Dump Block TT goal - 2 more of these to go this summer...

    But everything else seems like hard work.
    Thank you anyone who bothers to read and think anything encouraging even if you don't post. I appeciate your thoughts and your inspiration.

    Courage does not always roar. Sometimes, it is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying,
    "I will try again tomorrow".
