Year in review -
10k Goal 40 min - didn't reach but came within a minute
Marathon goal 3:30 - didn't reach but came within 3 minutes
City to Surf Goal 50min - came within 10 seconds
Best run of the year 1:28 Fremantle HM - peak form of the year and on the day probably would have reached any of the above goals if I raced those distances
Injuries - ITBS,Shin splints, plantar faciitis, sprained ankle, SI joint strain. None took too great a toll on me
2007:
1. Aim to beat my 2006 time in each equivalent race. (except maybe freo HM - think by running it too hard in 06 precipitated virus which interrupted Marathon prep)
2. Sub40min 10k by May. If that is achieved then may set lower target for second half of the year
3. Sub 3:20 marathon - should be readily achievable with an uninterrupted buildup
4. Sub48 City to Surf - this event is still a big one for me.
Have a long way to go - still in 44min 10k form by my tempo pace, which is where I was in Jan 06. Currently trying to put several weeks together to start 2007 - prob with Christchurch 12k, but might run in the Parlouf relay on Dec26 for some fun.

Glad to see you back and roaring to go. The goals appear very achievable, almost modest and with a solid build up you may well be in for some pleasant surprises.
My year has come to a screeching halt due to a death in the family and having had to fly overseas. I will throw in an 8k race in Zürich this Sunday, but 6 inch will have to wait until next year.
I'll try to do some club runs, so see you in the new year.
The goals are very reasonable. Good luck in 2007 and happy training.
