Jeez... I really need to post more often...

I just realized that I have not posted on this blog since over a year and a half. With the exception of some race updates.

So here is what (roughly) happened since the last post of November 2008...

  • I changed jobs and now work at HSBC Bank Canada since March 2009
  • I had a personal best time at the Vancouver Half Marathon in May 2009
  • I finished my first Half Ironman in Oliver in June 2009
  • I finished the Ride to Conquer Cancer
  • I did the Half Iron in Sooke in September of 2009 and qualified for the ITU Long Distance Triathlon World Championships in 2010 in Germany
  • I put on a really crappy marathon performance in Victoria in the Fall of 2009
  • I decided to participate in the Ride2Survive in 2010
  • I had a quite decent performance in the Vancouver Half Marathon early in May of this year
  • Now I am gearing up for another Half Iron in Oliver next weekend
  • In three weeks the Ride2Survive is on and I am stoked
  • August 1st - if all goes as planned - I'll toe the start line at the ITU LD Worlds (4-130-30) and hope to not completely embarrass myself
  • After that I'll focus again on running for the Portland Marathon on 10.10.10
  • Next Year: Ironman Canada if all goes well
  • And the year after that... who knows, but the idea is to take a year off "Big Plans" and just ride, swim, and run some and maybe do a marathon or so. 2012 is for re-charging.
Not much of a post I know... but hey! At least it is something.
