Master 2177 | Subject: RE: How's your 2014 Race Schedule shaping up? So far I'm registered for Xterra Guam in March and I'm waiting for registration to open up for our local marathon. Other than that, finances will dictate what I register for. I will definitely participate in all the local events I can, but we don't have a 70.3 distance and after my Olympic distance next month, I'm looking to knock out a HIM, which we don't have here. |

Pro 5755 | Subject: RE: How's your 2014 Race Schedule shaping up? 2014 will be a different approach for me. Last year I put all my eggs in two baskets with the Boston Marathon and IMLP. Pulled a hamstring at Boston, had a horrible HIM 3 weeks later, and wound up pulling out of LP due to business conflicts. This year I am going to do a lot of sprints and probably a half at the end of the season. Last year I had very little fun and trying to balance marathon and IM training with family and work was stressful. This year is going to be fun again. |

Member 560 Utah | Subject: RE: How's your 2014 Race Schedule shaping up? The only for sure race I have on the schedule is IM St. George 70.3 in May, and the SLC HM in April. Will probably do the Utah Half 70.3 In August. I have several events that will depend on lotteries if I get in, and I will wait to plan the rest of my season based on those lotteries for the Triple Bypass bike ride in July, and LOTOJA in Septemeber. Will probably do a fall half marathon as well. |

Champion 7036 Sarasota, FL | Subject: RE: How's your 2014 Race Schedule shaping up? I mostly do the same local races every year, so my schedule is pretty predictable: Jan: 4 mile Ringling Bridge run Feb: Scrub Jay 5K Trail Run Mar: Sarasota Half Marathon; Springfest 5K Apr: TBD May: Either Longboat Key or FIT sprint tri; outside chance I may do the Indy Mini HM Jun: Run for the Turtles 5K on Siesta Key Jul: Englewood Sprint Tri Aug: TBD Sep: Venice Sprint Tri Oct: Either Longboat Key or Sharks sprint tri on Siesta Key; Bill's Beer Run 5 mile with the track club Nov: TBD Dec: TBD I'll probably be adding at least one more 5K road race early in the year and would like to add another sprint tri in either Jun or Aug. I also may add another "fun" trail run. One of our local bike shops does monthly TT's during the summer, so that's also something I'd like to try sometime. Mark |

Veteran 930 Morgan Hill, California | Subject: RE: How's your 2014 Race Schedule shaping up? June: IM CdA. There are local races leading up to that in March, April, and May, but focus will be on June 29, CdA. I don't think I raced enough leading up to my first IM, so will likely do all/most of the local races in the months leading up to CdA. |

Champion 10668 Tacoma, Washington | Subject: RE: How's your 2014 Race Schedule shaping up? Mine is pretty skewed toward the late season -- September and even into October. All tentative, and likely I'll strike several off the list as they approach. Not "races" per se, but events. March: Gran Fondo EphrataElbe Multi-Strada Loop (I'm hosting this one) June: 5-Mile Lake Triathlon July: Trofeo Strada Bianca (hosted by Hampsten Cycles) August: Gran Fondo Wintrop (this one would be close to my daughter's first birthday, so it depends on when it actually falls) September: Bonney Lake Triathlon October: Oregon Coast Gravel Epic |

Member 178 Sioux Falls, SD | Subject: RE: How's your 2014 Race Schedule shaping up? My season will start taking shape around my 2 "A" races. Ironman 70.3 Kansas in June and Ironman 70.3 Silverman in October. Probably 2 sprints and 2 Olympics thrown in there with a half marathon in September. |

I want to do a HiM next year, but the timing with the local race sucks for me, so possibly Augusta. And then a fall Half Marathon. Maybe seriously consider an Ironman for 2015. |

Regular 477 Washington, DC | Subject: RE: How's your 2014 Race Schedule shaping up? The only thing I'm actually registered for so far is Eagleman in June. Considering running events in March/April and the Kinetic sprint in May as a tune-up for Eagleman. I'd like to do the Beach to Battleship 70.3 again next fall, and I'll probably do a few Olys in August and September -- maybe Nation's Tri. |

Master 3205 ann arbor, michigan | Subject: RE: How's your 2014 Race Schedule shaping up? Originally posted by switch Originally posted by wannabefaster 2014 race schedule-tentative April 12-Martian HM. May 16-18-American TTT Ohio. June 1-Dexter/Ann Arbor HM. June 15-Motor City Olympic. June 28-29 Chicago ITU Olympic. July 12-Muncie HIM. July 27-Lumberman Olympic or HIM. August 10-Steelhead HIM. September 7-Muskoka HIM (or 70.3 WC at MT if I qualify). September 13-CP HIM (if previous weekend doesn't work out). This will not end up being the final schedule but it is at least a framework of races I would like to do if everything works out. First time in three years that I don't have an IM on the schedule as the A race. It definitely allows for a lot more flexibility. Hey Jason, that is quite a race schedule! What does your training look like between races when you have 4 HIMs in 7 weeks? If you qualify at Muncie, will you still do Steelhead? Good question. I'm not sure I have the answer as I have never tried a schedule like this one but one of my goals for next year is to race more. I have always been amazed at how quickly one can recover from a HIM effort so I would expect to be back at normal training load 4-5 days after a race. We will have to see how the body reacts. I think it is unlikely that I will do the HIM on July 27 so that would make it 3 HIMs in 7 weeks plus an Olympic. Yes, I am planning on Steelhead even if I were to qualify at Muncie. Like I said, I want to race. Caveat... I give my coach a lot of power over my race schedule. I have sent this to him but still don't have final approval. I got a, "looks pretty good," from him but not complete approval. |

I have commented several times on how much easier/more relaxed planning for next year is without an IM on the schedule. For one thing, I didn't have to sign up a year in advance......... |
