I just want to have a positive influence on others and make friends wherever I go.. Oh screw that crap, I want to kick ass and get back to Kona and make enough money that I can do it on a carbon fiber/ sram Red set-up with new Zipp 404s!
- Qualify for Kona M4549 @ St. Croix (always wanted to do St. Croix for last 10 years - never been)
- Be able to stay 4 weeks before/after in Kona, Maui, etc.
- Qualify and run NYC Marathon (only need a 1:30 HM for guaranteed entry)
- Lake Placid IM
- Break all my PRs set when M3539 (I didnt think possible until I saw friends do this at 2010 Augusta in M4044)
- Make enough $$ to get a regular 90 min massage 1 x week
- Own a cabin in the N GA mountains where I keep my 3 extra bikes and a few in other sizes for friends
- Win the lottery, then work in a bike shop, w Espresso machine, 2 hours/ day with no sales quotas.
- Serve as USA Swimming Official at a National Meet
- Watch my kids be the best they can (and want) to be in swimming or other chosen sports
- Never get hit by a car
- Be the first to get a 5i50 tattoo
I ran. I ran until my muscles burned and my veins pumped battery acid. Then I ran some more.

Great topic. Mine would include riding across the US and running the Grand Canyon rim to rim. If I ever did another stand-alone marathon it would have to be someplace unique (i.e. Reykjavik as someone else had mentioned). I've checked off running a marathon (21x), qualifying for Boston (twice) and doing an IM (6x). Unfinished business includes riding from my house to the tip of the Cape in Provincetown in one day (roughly 130 miles) - I tried it a few years ago and had a bad crash about halfway through, damaging the bike and myself in the process and having to call it a day. On the calendar for next year.

Not sure if this has been asked before, but what endurance races/accomplishments do you hope to do before you kick it?
Not sure what to call it, but it will involve triplets and chocolate syrup.

Have done most of things I wanted. Still want to drive a loop of the U.S. and stop each day for a 1 to 2 hour run. Hope to do in the next 5 years.
Also hope to compete in tris for 50 consecutive years. I've got 22 years to go.

For the most part I have pretty much accomplished everything I want to. Just would like to continue to enjoy racing and pick up a few more wins.
Maybe run under a 5:00 mile when I am forty. This would not be anything remarkable, but would just be confirmation that I am still healthy and enjoying this.
Run a 10K with my kids. No kids (not even married), but would like to have kids someday and still be healthy and fit enough to do a race when I do.
