2010 Plans

I figured if I write down this year's plans for my cycling adventures and then broadcast them to all of you - it nails down the commitment factor. You're going to help keep me training and focused!

• Chilly  Hilly ( http://www.cascade.org/EandR/chilly/index.cfm) February 28th. This will be my third Chilly Hilly and it is a wonderful way to kick-start the cycling season. 
• Reach The Beach (http://rtb.kintera.org/faf/home/default.asp?ievent=294027) May 15th. I think I'm going to go for the century this time.
• Chelan Multi-Sport Tri-A-Tri ( http://www.chelanman.com/) July 18th. I just might step it up a little and go for the full sprint. It is the swimming that gets to me - that open water really intimidates me! 
• Lotojac (http://www.dailymile.com/events/11339-lotoja-20100 September 11th. This is the big one. This is what I like to do; push myself in such a way that I am waaaaay out of my comfort zone. In fact, this is such a big challenge to me that I am actually hiring a personal trainer for a couple of sessions to help me prepare for this one.

The morning of New Year's day I awoke feeling so refreshed; joyful, hopeful and happy. I have high hopes for 2010 - my cycling adventures certainly contribute to those happy feelings. I wish each of you wonderful surprises, lots of blessing, joy and hope for 2010. Happy New Year!!!
