Remaining goals for 2008

I have glanced at my totals for 2007 and 2008. Looks good. I think I have slacked the most on the run. That is funny because I am a good runner, but only when running. Running is one of my weaker disciplines during a triathlon. I am so amazed I finished an Ironman this year. One of my running buddies runs 80-90 miles per week. PER WEEK. YIKES. I struggle to run that much in a month. After looking at my totals, I want to make this year an all-start year.

2008 Totals (As of 10/14/08)
Swim: 199,150 meters (132.77 miles)
Bike: 2,911.99 miles
Run: 693.96 miles

2007 Totals
Swim: 200,035 meters (133.36 miles)
Bike: 2,570.60 miles
Run: 714.06 miles

I have some work to do. Here are my list of goals for the remaining of 2008.

Swim
Pass 200,000m and possibly 225,000m? That would be 150 miles total.
Swim every Tuesday and Thursday (min of 1,000 per day)

Bike
Reach 3,250 miles
Speed/Interval workouts
Ride 2-3 times per week??

Run
Run 306 miles...
- 79 days left to run
- Can I run 3.88 miles per day
- Can I run every day?
- I need a new pair of shoes!!!

The run goal seems to be the toughest. It almost scares me. I think I can manage the swim and bike goals.

Yup, I know some runners that run that much too, some even more. But they don't swim & bike too. I think you can run 25-30 MPW if you put your mind to it. Get the new shoes!!
