Things I want to do this year - anyone else?

Hi, this is aimed mostly at those in Ireland (all of it), but all welcome. Some things I am going to do this year - see the following websites....1/ www.runamuckchallenge.com 2/ www.roar.ie (West Wicklow) 3/ www.gaelforcewest.ie. Must be having a midlife crisis, but I'm aiming to do no:1 for fun, no:2 as a training run and no:3 just to prove that I can still do this at my age (just over 48 1/3). Anyone else interested? :shock:

Good luck, would love to do these - maybe next year though as I'm so unfit at present recovering from hip problems.

1. Get the 20 stitches out of my forehead, and reduce the scar tissue.
2. Get the injection for "Psoas Tendinitis" sorted, so I can...
3. Take my 3 dogs running on the beach, slate quarries and mountains,
4. Start swimming again, and do a few short course Triathlons,
5. Do an Enduro or long distance off road race, a few if possible.
6. Try not to crash/get injured again...ever...
7. Sort my bikes out so that I'm satisfied, and not buying new stuff for the sake of it!
8. Help the Mrs more, ( Her idea, not mine. See 1. )

Hey Iainment - got my ACL fixed after 4 years of rugby, cycling, without one (left knee). Have to give it a go and hope that 7 months training is enough - only worried about the running/jogging/walking part. A few trips to Glendalough to hike should sort that out. You could take a wee stroll up Carrauntohill! Go on - give them a go!!
