2009 Goals and Plans

[billduncan]

Hey guys! The Duncans are thinking about you! Daniel and I loaded/spotted for the women and lightweights at the USAPL American Open (Ronnie B, how do you feel about Russian food?)

It got me thinking about next year. I'm a few months (and a few hundred pounds -- on the bar, not the gut) behind the Pope, but I close out 08 with the big 50 bday. So I'm plotting my course for next year (BTW, Becky Rich is on the West Coast, somewhere around Oakland, FYI).

BWT -- currently 360-370; goal for 09 -- under 350 (then under 320)

SQ -- 550-600 Raw (may throw on the gear and try to get over 600)

BP -- 325 (that would be a 20 pound jump over 08)

DL -- 550-600 Raw

Meets I'll attend
Jan -- ADFPF MHS meet
Feb -- USPF MO state meet
Mar -- USAPL MO state meet
May -- USAPL Masters Nationals
July -- USAPL Raw Nationals

(I don't know about APA meets or about ADFPF Nationals/Worlds)

What about you guys?

If all goes as planned 2009 will be non stop for me. We should travel in January or Febuary to China to pick up our daughter Abigail. She is now three years old. i should became a Grand Dad in July if all goes well for my oldest son John and his wife.

Then the meets we have planned for this year should be awesome. Outside our state and local meets we have the 100% Raw Ironman Nationals in March and Masters Nationals in May. Then July the USAPL Raw Nationals.

Lifting wise I want to get my shoulder healthy and do all the lifting I can. I want to try and lift couple of new meets this year. I am looking at the USAPL PA single lifts meet and ADAU single lift Nationals. I plan on lifting in the 100% Raw and USAPL Virginia State meets.

I want to do more to honor the Lord he has been wonderful to me and my family I want to give him Praise.

And even Looking ahead to 2010

Jeremy will graduate from Liberty

USAPL Bench Nationals in the fall
