The Tri-Beert Bucket List

Well after reading the Iron Kahuna's list of things he would like to do before he kicks the bucket. I have put some thought into this but with more of a tilt towards the athletic side. So here it goes; the list isn't long yet but I am sure it will expand.

  1. Half-Ironman, this is on schedule and is currently scheduled for October 2008 with the Longhorn 70.3 in Austin Texas.
  2. Full-Ironman, not sure when this will be accomplished but right now the thinking is see how the half goes and if all goes well maybe shoot for Ironman Florida 2009? We will see, this would be quite a commitment time wise.
  3. Marathon, this should probably go above number two but hey we aren't prioritizing these yet. This would more than likely be the Chicago Marathon, the 07 debacle I am chalking up to the heat and not the quality of the race.
  4. Ragbrai, this is the annual ride across Iowa my home state. I have already recruited my brother-in-law to sign up for this sometime over the next five years and I will hold him to it. The five year time frame also gives me plenty of time to recruit more suckers as this is suppose to be as much of a party as it is an athletic event.

That is the list for now but I am sure it will expand as the ADD will kick in at some point.
