Jim Penson
Athletic Accomplishments: I have run two sprint triathlons this year and have run a few 10k’s over the recent years (US 10k and Peachtree being the most recent), with two more races on my calendar this year: Pine mountain 10k and Atlanta 1//2 marathon.
My tri times were in the lower third of my age group, with lots of room to improve on the bike, mostly. I was pretty happy with my run times and could also do much better on transitions.
2008 Goals: My main goal(s) for next season:
Complete a marathon by year’s end
place in my age group in a sprint triathlon
run a sub 40-minute Peachtree Road race
I actually see these happening in the reverse of the order I have typed them, in terms of the calendar year. (Peachtree in July, tri in Aug/Sept/Oct) and marathon on Thanksgiving.
