OK so please forgive me if this isn't how or where i should ask this question.

First a bit of introduction. I did my first Tri at hurley in salisbury NC on July 21st of this year. I started training in April of this year for that one. My goal was to finish and I did.

I have my second tri this weekend at tanglewood. I have really been training to survive vs anything else. My plan is to complete the tanglewood tri then sort of back up and try to build some base for training, I am trying to put together target races for 2008 and didn't see where I could find a race schedule. Should I just look at 2007 and loosely base it on the same weekends?

Oh and my goal is to do a couple of sprints and then an olympic distance race in 2008.

Anyone have suggestions for race planning out into 2008?

Thanks

The 2008 schedule from Setup hasn't been released yet. Usually its end of November first of December if memory serves me correctly. Basing it off 2007 will put you in the neighborhood of the 2008 race dates. 2006 to 2007 was real close. It remains to be seen if 2008 will change dramatically due to  "Beach2battleship". Look forward to seeing you out there.

In case you don't have the websites:

Setup events: http://www.setupevents.com

Another place with additional races is http://www.trifind.com/nc.html

Again, they still have their 2007 season listed, but 2008 should be fairly close. I will be doing 3-4 sprints and maybe an Olympic myself next season.

Congrats on your 1st tri and good luck for next season.
