Today marks the beginning of my 2010 triathlon season.  It is going to be a great season not only because I have the best Coach but I am also apart of the best triathlon team.  I have finally found some team mates that are actually crazier than I am but just as serious about their training and races.  Here is a picture of my coaches and crazy team mates trying to stay warm during the du they did in the snow and ice...they are loco!

The biggest goal I have for this season is to qualify for the 70.3 USAT National Championship race in South Caroline.  I know it is very doable if I have a good race at 70.3 Kansas.  However, I need to be more prepare if the worst happens...like how to deal with a flat tire.  I am also going to incorporate a few days of training low in hopes that it will benefit me during the race.  We will see how far I get with this concept.

In addition to that I want to do a few road races this spring so that I can improve my biking skills and test my speed.  I'm a little nervous about doing this. Maybe that's because every time I mention it to Coach he says I am going to fall.  Maybe this is one race I won't try to win.  I'll just hang out towards the front and see what happens. >:-)

The next few weeks are pretty routine but I'll keep you posted if something big happens.  Until then...good luck to everyone this season and train hard!
