We talk a lot about how the person you are racing is yourself and that is the most important measure and that you can only control what you do,not what the competition does.At the same time we have medals and AAs and records and TT etc.So which is more important to you? I was musing on this for myself after the SPMA meet.I went my best time in the 100M BR in 5 yr,but was beaten by Jim Clemmons.In the 50 BR I won,but was .3 sec slower than last yr.That got me wondering about goals.So,where do you stand?
My goal is always to shoot for personal best times, or at least times I will be happy with. I enjoy racing and winning, but really only when I'm racing people of roughly comparable ability. It's not particularly fulfilling either to blow everybody away or get blown away.
