Hey Kansas!

Just wanted to see what races everyone was planning on this year... are you registered for anything yet? Thinking about some races? Have there been any new ones pop up that aren't on the big list?

Hope everyone's training is off to a great start!

The usuals: KC tri, Topeka Tinman, SMP, Cedar Creek. All sprints. Hoping to poach some awards...

Cedar Creek is a relatively new race that I have loved. Towards the end of the season, super competitive, sprint distance only. Check, check, check.

I also plan on run walking the KC Marathon in October.

Same here, Mark, I'm doing the same local stuff that I like to do every year. However, I'm trying to maintain a streak of doing at least one or two races per year that I've never done before. For this year I'm hoping those race are Muncie 70.3 and USAT Nationals in Omaha.

Cedar Creek was a fun race, will do again this year. I'm signed up for KC Tri, will do the "free" Corporate Challenge Sprint at SMP. I'm doing Nationals in Omaha. Other than that not sure. I might go long this summer/fall, might do IM CdA as my team has offered to cover lodging but that doesn't leave much time to train. I was throwing around Louisville since it's late in the fall so plenty of time to train.

Lisa, I think you'd enjoy Cedar Creek even though it's a shortie. I think you can convince Linda to do that one too.

I'm starting the season next month with IM 70.3 New Orleans. My wife is racing too and it's her first HIM.
KC Tri
Tinman long course (why did I sign up for this? I hate this race!!)
Cedar Creek (free entry....I need this...I accidentally cheated last year for my first every DQ)
I'm doing something else in September....I'm contemplating Savageman. It's on my bucket list....trying to see if I have the nerve or not for this eyar. Otherwise, I may do Border Wars Triathlon again. Great race.

I haven't seen anything new for a while, but a number of dates have firmed up. Ill try to update that list soon.

Yeah, Omaha is really enticing. I'm only interested in the sprint, and finding a hotel + registration+ transportation is holding me back for a 1 hour race... but I know I'll want to be there.

So far I'm looking at the following: Trying to do more out of town stuff:

I'm about to pull the trigger on my first full, so everything else is tentative

August 21: IM Coeur d' Alene

Probably:
HP3 Duathlon in April
KC Tri in May
KC Corporate Challenge Sprint in June
Shawnee Mission Long Course in July
AG Nationals in August
Cedar Creek in August

Tentatively:
Legend 70 or 100 in June (might do road & crit races at Tour of KC Instead)
Des Moines in September
Savageman in September (Bucket List)

I'm so random that some of these could get scratched plus I could add a couple more.....

Fort leavenworth tri. The hills killed me last year and I wrecked on the bike so hoping for a better showing.
Shawnee mission tri is up in the air. A friend liked it.
Manhattan little apple tri. That was a good rave last year. Pretty low key.
Cedar creek. Always a good race!
