2026 Goals

Might as well start one, albeit nearly a copy and paste from last year for me.

TLDR

Sub 5 - 70.3
Sub 90 half marathon
Sub 20 parkrun\5K
Sub 42 10K
Couple of trail races
Try and get into Tokyo 2027
Sub 10:45 at Barcelona (can’t defer this time)
Sub 60 up ADH!

Travel - Booked a trip to get a few capitals in March including Cyprus & Turkey

Work - go part-time, don’t see VS happening

Waffle :roll_eyes::joy:

A few of the sporting targets are rolling ones, wasn’t far off most and had hoped I might crack them in the last 6 weeks until I got injured. Not sure I’ll be reaching any of the running times in the first half but maybe as the year progresses.

Got the trail race in Italy and going to do a half in Cyprus all being well.

Haven’t actually entered a 70.3 yet but got a few in mind, have got ADH duathlon and long course but mostly a bit of a training week.

If\when they announce where the 70.3 WC is in 2027 I might see if there’s a chance of going, but if it’s something like £800 that’s me out, would rather do a normal 70.3 and put the extra £350 towards a holiday.

The GF is wanting to go on holiday somewhere but need to get her to commit, preference would be April\May before things get too busy and hot, that’s one worry with ADH but the altitude might make it cooler.

Barcelona is the big one, hopefully have a bit more time to train if I reduce my hours, I should have enough time now but it’s more the recovery and I’m just not very organised.

Going to be asking in early February about dropping to .6 from May and see what they say, they’ve previously indicated I can drop my hours but not sure what they’re expecting.

There’s a few DIY things but the GF generally picks what she wants and I just pay 50% :roll_eyes:
