    Not sure. I have thought about it, but...

    The race I could do in March... I have to travel for... which means $$$ and time off work. So I think maybe no.

    The race I wanted to do in April... it's the weekend I'll be in Arizona cheering on people at IMAZ.

    Otherwise... I do know that I'm doing Ironman Kentucky in August!

    My schedule is still in flux but will be something like:

    April: sprint tri (registration opens tonight)
    May: charity ride
    June: Tour de Cure charity ride (registered)
    July: sprint tri (registration opens tonight)
    August: Iron Girl sprint tri
    I'd rather be swimming...biking...running...and eating cheesecake...

    This is what I have and I think this is fairly solid. Some were wavering because I didn't know if I could swim the Oly distance... but I've really come along in my swimming in the past couple weeks. Something just clicked and it seems like I could go forever now!

    April: 62 mile bike ride
    May: 1/2 marathon
    June: 2 sprint tris
    July: Lifetime Fitness Oly tri
    Aug: Oly tri and possibley another Oly or a sprint. Not sure if I am going to do the second one or not.

    Then September and October I'll do some running races, 5K's and 10K's mainly. Maybe a duathlon if one pops up somewhere.

    plans..plans

    Well hopefully my plans will not go awry this year..
    so far I have signed up and paid my money for 2 races..
    1/2Marathon in Vancouver early in May
    and my first ever 1/2 IM first weekend in June- this way I figure we can get back to our usual sailing races and camping etc thru the rest of the summer so for my husband and I this was a good compromise ( because of course I signed him up too

    Pika - I used to do that. Have my biggest race of the year in the early summe so I could windsurf as much as I wanted and still have motivation to keep me training through the winter. It works great. Then that darned IM Can thing keeps coming up.

    Not this year though. More playing this summer for me.

    Hi Kelownagirl-
    The 1/2IM is in Oliver-1st weekend in June- supposed to be a good course for first timers because the bike is relatively flat- doesn't climb any major passes or anything and the weather should be good though last year the temps were up in the mid 30C - yikes I hope it isn't that hot this year!
