I have a 4-miler at the end of July. That will give me plenty of time to safely build, I think.

[labbie]

Congrats on getting back to racing!

This is the first year I've planned out my races ahead of time. The only race that's happened was a 15K in March. From there my spring/summer/fall has 1 race each month for a total of 4 halfs, a sprint tri, and 2 12Ks.


I may also do a random 5K here and there. My long range goal is to do a spring 2016 full (gah!!), a 2017 ultra hopefully a 50-miler. Hold me.

[sadlebred]

April: Gravel Grinder Race, XC MTB Race
May: 3 Hour MTB Race, XC MTB Race, century/charity ride
June: 3 Hour MTB Race, XC MTB Race, century/charity ride
July: ? I often don't race in July, at least 1 century/charity ride
Aug.: Gravel Grinder Race, one of my favorite century/charity rides

I'm going easy on the mountain bike races this year b/c I race until January, and I am doing more than a full CX season Sept.-Nationals in Jan. 2016. I don't want to get burned out, and I have to watch my budget this year.

[juliabug]

4 sprint triathlons, 1 oly tri
I might also do a mile channel swim across the Columbia River.

[shell24]

I've got the NASHVILLE Country music 1/2 on the 25th of this month.
5/23 - Soldier Field 10 miler
A couple local 5ks and 10ks in June
Rock n Roll 1/2 in July
Chicago Women's 1/2 in September
Chicago marathon in October

I have to put together a couple small races in July and August, and maybe in September too.

[mrs.jacinthe]

06/14 - GCBS (4.4 mi)
07/31-08/02 - Cascade lakes series (3k, 500m, 1000m, 1500m, 5k)
08/15 - Donner Lake (2.7 mi)
08/22 - Lake Tahoe OWS (1.2 or 2.4)
09/?? - possible Tahoe width crossing (11-ish miles)

Edited to correct dates.

[shauni27]

My race schedule is pretty sparse:

local 5K May 2
Covered Bridge Half Marathon June 7
local 4 mile run June 21

Other than training for the half, my plan is really to switch my focus more to crossfit 4-5 days a week and dial back the running. I just find I enjoy it more than running right now, so why do something I don't love?

Hopefully my infertility will stop being a stupid twat waffle and let me get KU as well.  That's always goal numbero uno.

[arch01]

Nothing at the moment and it feels good. Next up is the Indy Women's Half in September.

[coconutbug]

I've only registered for two other races so far, both on May 9 - a work-related 5K in the morning and then a Nike Women's 10K at night. I'll likely do some open water swims, an aquathlon, and maybe a tri over the summer.

[blndsnbrdr]

4/25 = Niwot's Challenge
5/17 = Colfax Half
6/7 = Steamboat Marathon
7/31-8/1 = Wild West Relay
August = mountain 50K
9/25 = Bear Chase 50K [maybe]
October = 200M race [if they reschedule]

As part of the race team I'm on I need to run 7 races, 5 of them on trails so I may need to adjust a bit...

[shorewife]

I have a half marathon this weekend and a HIM on Sept 10th.  Other than that lots of smaller races (running, tri's and a swim or two) that I will train through.

I like having a schedule to train with so I'm looking forward to getting some structure back to my training.

[hannahb]

Absolutely nothing. I've been a little lost lately.

Oh, I know. I've done it a few times. We have a wedding that day, so I'm just waiting on it.

Where on the river is the channel swim? I've done a race on the Columbia without a wetsuit, it was so, so cold. Like pins and needles all over my body!

[osulori]

Right now, nothing. I tend to not race in the summer because it can be so f'ing hot here, but there are a couple of local 5 milers I'm eyeing in May and June.

[katinthehat]

Lots of racing this summer.

Friday night races almost every week from here until October. Crits on Wednesday in April & June. A big crit the first Sunday in May. And my peak event is the omninum at the end of September which we're hoping gets combined with Elite Regionals.

Maybe a 5K in June and July.

And I'd love to be able to do a little tri that I did a few years ago in August. It was so much fun and I'd really like to get back into swimming.

[pinkpeony6210]

5/2: Grand Island Half Marathon
5/24: Buffalo Half Marathon
6/27: Ride for Roswell (45 miles) It's technically not a race, though.

How fun does THAT look!  It violates my normal $1 per minute of swimming rule, but there is a boat ride included.  Hmmm.

The only downside is that that's Labor Day, so hotels and stuff are going to be more expensive.  Let me talk it over with R and see what he thinks.

That's a wise rule!

[elletr13]

I have:

Country Music 1/2 Marathon--4/25
Junior League 5K--5/9 (I doubt I'll run in this one--I'll probably be a buddy runner for one of the kids we're sponsoring and we'll end up walking it.
Navy Nautical 10 Miler 6/7/15 (I still need to register for this)

I plan on taking the summer off from races/race training and focus on strength training. I hope to start NROLFW after the Navy 10 miler. I'll still plan to run twice a week or so and then maybe pick up some races in the fall/winter. Running in Memphis in the summer is hellish anyways!

[jeaniebueller]

10K: this weekends
Half Marathon: 6/27
5K: July
Half Marathon in October

I will probably run a few random 5Ks along the way too.

[irene adler]

10k Trail run--Aug 9
Hell of a Half--Aug 12
Fathers day 10K (maybe)

These are all tentative and based on someone to find to run with/travel to the race together. I'm over driving an hour+ to run a race alone, and my favorite racing partner is KU.

[Deleted]

So far I have a 5k on May 3rd. I know I am not going to be able to run the whole thing but my goal is to run 75% of it under 40 minutes.

I also have a 5k planned in the end of August. I want to run the whole thing and be under 37 minutes.

After that I may plan a 10K in the fall.
