    Half Ironman 2013 (Rhode Island)
    Full Ironman 201? (Tempe, AZ)

    Walk the Camino de Santiago de Compostela (aka "The Way of St James") - 1,000+ year old pilgrimage trail through Spain. Need a good month off of work to do this, though... so this is definitely TBD, but one day.....:smile:

    I want to run a 5K without stopping to walk, rock climbing (I'm afraid of heights), do proper pushups and eventually run a half marathon.

    Mine isnt really a huge thing, I havnt thought about marathons or anything...yet anyways. Im very out of shape, get tired just walking fast for a mile, and running is a joke, I last about 3 minutes. SO....my fitness goal right now is to work into running, I want to be able to run a whole mile! (Big deal for me!)

    We all have to start somewhere, the fact that you are commiting yourself to it means a lot... I am sure you will achieve your goal and then have another set right after it.

    I want to complete a 5k, I did start C25K last week. I want to complete C25K by the middle of October. Once I finish C25K I will look for a 5k to enter.

    Saprtan Sprint next August..

    Of couse I would like to see my abs someday!!!

    After my race season ends (early October after a 10 mile race), I plan to tackle the New Rules of Lifting for Women program o the winter.

    Then next summer, I'd like to improve my finish times for some of the sprint and half marathon I've done in the past.

    AND, at some point, I want to tackle Insantity!

    So far....

    Join the sub 3 club for Argus Cycling. A 110km cycling race and need to finish in under 3 hours to join the club, as the name says...

    AND

    Finish the Spartathlon successfully... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spartathlon <-- Check out the link... I'm sure you'll realise why if your a runner this is the ULTIMATE bucket list item... IMHO anyway...


    Spartathlon is a 246-kilometre (153 mi) ultramarathon race held annually in Greece since 1983 between Athens and Sparta.

    1. Do the local women's-only triathlon in May
    2. Reach the peak of the most challenging local mountain in July- I've been ogling it for years, wanting to conquer it
    4. Do a very difficult 26-mile trail takes me through mountain passes, rivers, and glaciers...and do it in a single day (been a dream of mine for 10 years) sometime next summer
    3. Hike the Appalachian Trail (this would be a massive endeavor to coordinate that might be a few years off)

    For the people saying Color Run, do it! I did it with my friends (even at our not most fit point) and it was so fun and really got us motivated to keep going with our goals. I say, do it now, and just make goals to make your time better, run more than walk next time, etc. =]

    OOoooo... I do like the sounds of that one! Reminds me of a mountain bike "race" that takes place in the rockies once a year. I can't remember the name off-hand, but it's a 100 mile mtb race in an area so remote, everything needs to air-lifted in. all the people, gear, everything. You really need to plan ahead.

    You can win prizes if you finish it under certain times. Most people do it in more than 10 hours.
