I just finished my first HIM (second tri) and am having trouble getting motivated to train again. I think I need to register for another race so that I have something to work towards. I haven't got the $$$ to do the race I was planning on in a couple of weeks, so I need to find another. Can anyone recommend any good Olympic or HIM races in September in either the Pacific NW or British Columbia?

What's wrong with resting? What's wrong with having a "normal" life and doing what you FEEL like doing? Go on fun group rides... go on fun runs... don't force it.

That's my my philosophy. I know after sitting around for a couple of months I'll get bored and get my motivation back.

After IMKY last year I bummed around for a good 2-3 months. Signing up for a marathon got me motivated and moving again... and it also gave me a whole new challenge and a different training plan, so it was the perfect follow-up to IMKY.
