I used to post my race plans for the year in early January, well that hasn't happened and to get the year off to not so good start, I started the race season with a DNS at Zoom Yah! Yah!. Turned out besides my poor training I went into the race weekend trying to recover from being sick all week. The day before ZYY, I went to the club and tried to get in a couple miles on the treadmill and couldn't make a mile so I pulled the plug.
As to this year, we have a lot of things going on in May (youngest daughter's graduation and oldest daughter's wedding) followed by the start of my marathon season.
May
Med City Marathon -- May 29th
June
FANs Volunteer -- June 4th
Minneapolis Marathon -- June 5th
Grandma's Marathon -- June 18th
July
Afton 25k or 50k? -- July 2nd
Turtle Trot Triathlon -- July 16th
August
St. Paul Urban -- August 20th
September
Marquette Marathon -- September 3rd
Walker Marathon -- September 17th
Mill Race Marathon -- September 24th
October
Twin Cities Marathon (Ultra Looney) -- October 8 & 9th
Surf the Murph (tbd) -- October 22nd
Dates in green are paid for races, yellow are under consideration
You can see I am sticking with the MN marathons and 50k's for this year but with our youngest out of college my wife and I can renew the 50 state marathon quest going forward.
Any recommendations?
