Subject: 2011 Season-what's your schedule?
It is DEAD here in the Ohio forums. This always happens in the winter though. So what is everyone thinking about next years schedule? It'll be Janurary in a few weeks and time to really get on the stick and work off those Christmas cookies. Here's what I'm thinking:

Jan/Feb- A local 5k, I've not really decided yet which one, I don't want to run in the snow and ice, I did that once on a 5k race and hated it. Though I did make a snow angel during the race.

March- A local 10k. Maybe on on St. Patrick's day.

May 20-22- TTT!

July 9- The Muncee HIM

August 28- IMKY

What say you Ohio BTers? What's on tap for you next year?

I don't have my entire schedule set, and alot is riding on getting this damn plantar fasciitis healed up, but here is what I have so far (I hope):

April ~ Martian Marathon, Dearborn MI
June ~ Olympic Tri (location TBD)
July ~ Muncie 70.3, Muncie IN
Aug ~ IMKY, Louisville KY
Oct ~ **Two Marathons in Two Days (Indy on Sat & Columbus on Sun)

**My husband and I did this last year ('09), it was our "entry" into the Marathon Maniacs, lots of fun!!

Don't have it finalized yet... waiting for more races to show up on the calendars...

May 7 or 8- Indianapolis Mini Marathon
June 4- WARRIOR DASH!  I need a big fuzzy helmet and a beer!!!!!!!
June 12 - Wendy's? (debating)
June 26 -OLY in C-Bus (not registered yet)
July???
August 7 - Cleveland OLY (not registered yet)
Sept 11 - Rev 3 HIM (not registered yet)

If someone would be kind enough to win the lottery and share their winnings so I can register for my races, that would be swell...

Tentative thus far but hoping for:

May 7- Ohio U tri in Athens
June4- Warrior Dash
July- waiting to see what the new hfp event is, possibly that.
Sept 11- Rev 3 half
Oct 2- Maybe Deer Creek sprint depending on how I feel after Rev 3.

Is that Muncie half now an Ironman event or are they 2 separate races?

It's an IM brand. But I typed out "Ironman Muncee 70.3" and felt quite pretentious. It's not an Ironman. It's a half Ironman. But don't get me started.

May - Little Smokies HIM (not yet registered)
July - Muncie HIM (not yet registered - I plan to register on Dec. 31st)
Aug - IM Louisville (registered)

I'll probably end up doing Miami University if my brother does it. This is about half of the races I normally do, but will by far be the most expensive season yet.

Did Ironman just take that race over?  I thought it was an independent prior but saw it listed under the 70.3's on the IM web site.

Yep. They just took it over this year. Same race, $100 more!

I'm thinking about:

May 22nd - Easton Triathlon (short and close to home for my first one, that way I can crawl home if needed.)
June 12th - Wendy's Tri
Oct 30th - 70.3 Miami (Not registered yet, still working out some details)

That's about all I have lined up so far, still have some voids to fill though.  I am going to talk to a buddy that did the Warrior Dash last year, so I might be up for that in June too.

Thinking about the warmer months is what gets me through winters like this. Barring any injury, my plan is for summer swim lessons and:

May 1 - Flying Pig Half (Registered)
July 16 - Ride Across Indiana
Oct 17 - Columbus Marathon

I'm still working out the details on mine, but here's the rough plan:

April 17, 2011 - The hoover hustle 10K ( i did really well at this run last year and want to try and beat my time) Oops, I totally forgot i will be running the Lawrence, KS Half Marathon this day with a friend!
May - The indoor tri at Easton
June - Warrior Dash
June-August - Possibly the Wheelie Fun Sprint Distance series?  Just need to get the funds to register.  
August or September - Try to do my first Olympic distance tri

I hope to get a better bike in the early spring/late winter, and then I may feel better prepared in mapping out my full plan.  I also plan on being on the boards here more often this year!

July - probably Caesar's Creek, possibly new HFP race on 7/31 pending...
Aug 28 - Chicago Tri OLY
Nov 5 - IMFL

Any CincyExpress members? Just joined last week for 2011!

Probably (unless I pick up another hobby before then. Hookers and cocaine are almost the same cost as triathlon.)

Jan-Mar - a couple of  5k/10k trail races
April - Miami Sprint
June - Deer Creek OLY Maumee OLY
July - Caesar Creek OLY
Aug - Sylvania OLY
Oct-Dec - a couple more 5k/10k road races

I will probably take another hack at a 70.3 (either Rev3 Sandusky or Deer Creek in September) I was going to try out Muncie cause the track is so flat and apparently the wind is always at your back on the bike but I dont know if I would be in good enough shape by July for a quality 70.3 performance.  Nothing too different from last year as far as I can tell.

May - Flying Pig Half Marathon.
May - Possibly the half iron distance part of the Triple T. Would probably skip the Pig in that case.
July - Some sort of mid-summer sprint.
August - I think I'm going Iron!!!!!!!!!!!!!
October - Columbus Marathon.

I may do the Ironman without doing a half. I think I need to be scared again to get motivated. I'm at half iron distance ready for the run and swim. Would have said that for the bike this time last year, 'cept I've really slacked off that leg of the race, but I've got a trainer this winter.

So, I've got eight months to prep and set aside the registration fee for Ironman KY and - most importantly - I already have the full support of my husband.

Still thinking on it...I thought I had a general idea and I kind of prefer the fly by the seat of my pants method - it worked for me last year - but I did until yesterday have at least a general idea, although I got a call from my Triathlon Dad and he's throwing monkey wrenches, I'll have to come back to this in a while.

It looks like it's still open for now, but I wouldn't expect that to last too much longer.

Hey Alice.  We will probably see each other at TTT.  I'm from Cincinnati. 

Have you done TTT before?  What are your thoughts?  Any tips?  My major concerns are the weather...cold water for the swim and some of the hills on the bike.  I have seen various people talk about using tri bike vs road bike, what are your thoughts?
