I like reading through these threads so I'll contribute though my season hasn't been too awesome(on the track season that is)

What did you do well?
Just started racing track this year. Did the intro class in June, started racing at the end of June, upgraded to the 3's, and now I'm consistently finishing races and omniums in the 4-6th place range...
Where can you improve?
Work on my 5-10 minute power. Usually a strength for me, but I've been slacking a bit on on the bike training lately. I also need to work on my tactics as I usually have gas in the tank and can make up places at the end of races though it's tough to win starting from 10th wheel at 400m to go. They have improved, but I foresee move video review over the winter.
What will you change?
Adding more intensity, taking out long rides. Last year at this time I was doing 6-7 hour rides on the weekends to get ready to road race, this year will be much different.
How do you plan to spend the next 3 months (OCT-NOV-DEC of 2014)?
Lifting, some shorter high intensity rides(2-3 hours), and vacation time. Planning a later start to the season next year as crits/track don't get going until late April/early march time frame.
