You can see I've done a lot of shuffling over the last few months -- I'm a planner, yes, but given enough lead time, I'm flexible. The race distances I'm aiming for have changed substantially, but my approach will be changing as well.
Things are going to be different after next weekend. I'll be running on trails when I can. There won't be many 30-minute dashes through the neighborhood for a while. I'll be going much longer more often, with less concern about sticking to certain paces. To reach the kind of goals I'm aiming for, it's gonna take work.
Here's what I'm thinking (* means I'm registered, the bold ones are new since I last put the list up in January):
*6/18/11 Grandma's Marathon, Duluth MN
*7/10/11 Too Hot to Handle 15K, Dallas
*8/14/11 The Hottest Half, Dallas
*9/10/11 Katy Trail 50, Boonville MO
*10/9/11 Tyler Rose Marathon
*10/23/11 13.1 Dallas
*11/13/11 Rock 'n' Roll San Antonio Marathon
12/3/11 Run Like The Wind 24-Hour, Austin TX
1/7/12 Bandera 100K
2/10/12 Rouge-Orleans (126.2 miles), Baton Rouge to New Orleans
2/25/12 Mount Cheaha 50K, Oxford AL
3/17/12 Dash Down Greenville, Dallas
4/16/12 Boston Marathon (or 4/14/12, Oz Marathon, Olathe KS)
5/13/12 North Trail HM, Dallas
6/2/12 Old Dominion 100, Woodstock VA
6/17/12 Dadfest (5K), Dallas
7/4/12 Liberty 10K, The Colony TX
7/15/12 El Scorcho 50K, Fort Worth TX
8/4/12 Headlands Hundred, Sausalito CA
9/3/12 Labor Day 15K, Dallas
9/15/12 Tour des Fleurs 20K, Dallas
9/23/12 Heels & Hills & Him HM, Irving TX
10/6/12 Heartland 100, Cassoday KS
10/21/12 Waterworks 25K, Dallas
11/4/12 DRC Half, Dallas
11/18/12 Big D 30K
12/2/12 Rock 'n' Roll Las Vegas Marathon
12/15/12 Jog'r Egg Nog'r 15K, Dallas
I will also add a short race (10K max) before the end of 2011 to keep a nice round 20-race total for the year.
