I should probably wait until I throw down my money to make it official. I've decided to run the Capital City Half Marathon in Columbus May 4! I am so excited to see all my Columbus friends again, but that will mean two half marathons and a duathlon in back to back weekends. I'm also considering a tri in Columbus at the end of June.
In addition, I'm going to shoot for the Wineglass Marathon in October.
So, the only thing I'm missing is an Olympic Tri sometime in late June. I just need to take the time to find a good one.
So my race schedule for the year:
April 27: Flower City Du: 5K run, 20 mile bike, 5K run, Rochester
April 28: Flower City half marathon - 13.1 mile run, Rochester
May 4: Capital City Half Marathon, 13.1 mile run, Columbus, Ohio (still need to register)
June 2: Strassburg Sock Keuka Lake triathlon, 820 yard (.75k) swim, 14 mile bike, 3.1 mile run, Penn Yan, NY
POSSIBLE: June 9: The Great Western Reserve triathlon, swim 1500 meters, bike 26 miles, run 6.2 miles, Ravenna, Ohio
OR
POSSIBLE: June 30: Greenswell Antrim Park triathlon, swim 1500 meters, bike 24.9 miles, run 6.2 miles, Columbus, Ohio
July 14: Musselman HALF-IRON!!! 1.2 mile swim, 56 mile bike, 13.1 mile run, Geneva, NY
September 7: Highlander Cycle Tour, 100 mile ride, Canandaigua, New York (still need to register)
October 6: Wine Glass full marathon, 26.2 mile run, Corning, New York (still need to register)
Eeep.

Race possibility: The Gauntlet
Sara over at Words to Run By tipped me off to this race that looks awfully intriguing. It's called The Gauntlet, a (gasp!) 10-mile obstacle course race June 17.
It's daunting because they don't tell you what the obstacles are beforehand. But I'm intrigued. And there's a slight chance that I may be able to get in for free.
The race is put on by Greenswell. I did one of their triathlons as a relay last year and was really impressed by the race organization, so I'm expecting the same for this one!
The only thing that makes me nervous about this one is the timing. I'm doing the Flying Pig May 6 and then I'm determined to take a month off, at least from running. I'll still spin, bike and probably start swimming. So, that means I'll start running again June 6 -- maybe a little sooner but not much. Will I be ready for a 10 mile obstacle course race by then? I have no clue!!
Maybe I can convince some other peeps to do it as a relay :)
