We've been filling up our 2013 race calendar during the last couple months. I didn't realize how time consuming it could be deciding what race and what distance to run. And how expensive it can quickly get.
The idea was to keep it at a race a month but have cheated a couple times and registered for a couple in the same month.
We even made a wall calendar to write down the races, but this proved to be not such a good idea. Why? Well, now, we see an empty month and immediately start searching for races that we might be able to do.
March - Nueces 50 miler
- The Maze 30k
April - Hell's Hills 25k
May - Pandora's Box of Rox Marathon
June - Substituting a music fest for a run (but may be a cheat month)
July - Mule Shoe Bend 60k
August - Colorado Bend 60k
- Reveille Ranch 30 or 60k
September - searching
October - Cactus Rose Relay, 50 or (maybe even ) 100 (again)
November - searching
December - searching
We stopped at 2013 because we already know what we are running Jan/Feb/March 2014, and think this calendar planning thing could go on forever...and, really, that is not a bad thing.
You forgot the GC R2R2R in early October. That will be my A race for 2013.
ReplyDeleteYes, Scott, it is on my radar. Seriously thinking about it - just have to finalize my running schedule.
DeleteSee you at Pandora's!
ReplyDeleteSo far, all systems are a GO for it!!!
