Outlaw, August
Thinking Dambuster and Vitruvian, maybe Ripon for the family. Rough ride and HONC (both MTB)
That's my budget gone.
Ade
Yet to enter my usual Mansfield, Lincoln Woodhall Spa and Nottingham Sprints because I love them
Possibly Norwich OD
Others still mulling over
Tough Guy in January
I think about July'ish and its at the water centre near the snowboarding centre can't recall the name for now. I enjoyed the Sprint 2 years ago, couldn't get on last year as it booked up quickly
London Tri - Aug - have never done and probably will never want to again but needs to be ticked off the list
Timberman 70.3 - Aug - bit of New Hampshire countryside then a week on the beer
Windsor OD in June
Thinking about:
London Duathlon in September
Bala OD
and still looking for a middle distance or HIM that is suitable for first timers .... any suggestions?!
Arundel Sprint - Not signed up yet but will do.
Was going to do Windsor or Blenheim but the cost on top of London would be just too much so looking for a sprint near London that I don't have to drive to. May do the Crystal Palace one or Hampton.
Grendon Qualifier for Sprint in May
Windsor OD (first OD!)
Not sure what after that.....
do all the world qualifers for olympic distance
and using the sprints as warm up and back up
may do weatherby early on as well
looking forward to bala at the end of the season
move up a age group next year so may be ok for time for next year europeans
sorry just a friday moment, ......i have a genuine interest is seeing the levels people are going for next year and always like to see how people are planning multi years....so want to do a bunch of OD and a 1/2 marathon next year...with a view to HIM 2011..
I've not entered anything directly. However I am intending to do ones that I entered last year where the organisation was good. I will also be entering my first tri to see how far I've come and if I'm faster.
Hope to have the swimming sorted then and I do know I'll be faster on the bike.
My A race will be IMUK, not everyone's cup of tea but it will do for me.
In between that will be Chaserace, competing or supporting willieverfinish. Possibly Liverpool as well.
Not sure after that.
I've got a whole document laid out with all the races I'd 'like' to do month by month, starting with F3's Winter Duathlons in January at Dorney Lake and through to Vitruvian in September.
So far I've coughed up for:
Brighton Marathon
Windsor OD
Woking OD
Just waiting for my Triathlon England member number to arrive before I enter any more, but when it does I'll enter the MK Duathlon in April and Vitruvian (if the site EVER goes live).
I'm also tempted to do the Stirling Uni Duathlon as an excuse to go back up to Scotland.
There will be more though, a few Thames Turbo Tri's and other London League events.
Hell of Ashdown
Sevenoaks Sprint- 1st Tri!!!
Tonbridge Sprint
Got to book
Dartford Tri Olympic - 1st OD
MK Olympic Tri
Great North Run - already in defered from last year
Plus club ride to Paris, and other sportives
Erm actually looks quite busy, only did 3 10Km runs and 1 120km sportive this year!!!
The Beaver Middle Distance
IM - France
The Outlaw
Also going back to attempt to defend the Tatton Park Sprint title i won this year
I may also do Bala Standard again which was fantastic this year
Non Tri Events include:
Toughguy
Barcelona Marathon
Cheshire Cat 100 mile sportive
Loch Ness Marathon
To enter:
little woody
new forest marathon
and who know what else!
New age group next year...40-44 ... so as you can see mid-life crisis is biting hard.
*EDIT* Should've said Stubb, E'leigh, Windsor, London entered so far. Sprints & Weymouth will be entering next year.
Jan 3rd - Pennine 10K (won't be able to do this though).
Feb 25 - Vertical Rush
April - Skipton Tri.
That's it so far! It all depends how the running progresses. Will probably have to avoid running races for a few months - which means just doing sprint tris.
Will look more at cycling events this year. Unless I suddenly get good at Swimming.
Had a bad race this year where I had to walk most of the run after DNFing the year before because of a calf problem. This year is all about avenging those two races and getting as much info/advise I can to ensure I have a good race in 2010. I want Sub6 hrs.
Marshman 2010
The Dragonride
Ironman Switzerland.
I'll be getting a 100 mile sportive in each of Feb/ March & April and that'll be me done!
All entries and training geared towards my first ironman, after which I'll have a nice rest!
can't wait for it.......
