Just wondering what races you are all planning to do this year?  What are you focus races?

I have a several planned already:

My main races will be the Hardrock 100 and the UTMB.  Really excited that I actually made it through the lottery on both of them. 

My training races are the Mallorca 100 km and the Dolomiti Extreme Trail.  I may add a few other races on the schedule also, but not sure yet.

What are you plans for this year.  Anyone planning to do some of the same races?

Cheers!

Doing the Prairie Spirit 50 March 23. 

Probably going to Hells Hills Apr 6, but I won't be doing it since it's 2 weeks post PS 50. Maybe just the 10k. 

I'll probably find another 50m or some 50k's for the summer. Haven't looked that far ahead. 

Seriously considering the Cajun Coyote 100k in Dec. Looks like a really fun event. Depending on how that goes (if I get that far this year) I'll be looking at some 100's in the spring. Sealed

Just completed my first 100k this past weekend. I finished hobbling through the start line after the most painful 3 miles of my life, saying I would never do a 100 miler. Well, as some of you Ultra guys (and girls) probably know, the dark side start to talk to me. And the voices want me to do a 100 miler. I am starting to look for another 50 miler in the fall, but not sure what yet. 2014 is looking like an early season 100 miler might be the call as I will be gearing up for a Ironman build again.

only one race for me this year, Lost Soul Ultra 100 miler in September.  Crashed and burned last year so looking for a different experience this year.

In preparation I have a 10k in April and a Marathon in May, to keep me from spending all my free time power hiking up mountains, then a 50 miler in August.  Oh, right, and that 50k coming up on Monday.  Going to be a good year.

Well my big ultra races (100K and 100 miler) are already done for the year.  They schedule those early in Texas because no one wants to run that far in the summer around here.  So now I'm back to du's and tri's for awhile.  Have Galveston 70.3 coming up and a HITS 70.3 both in April.  I'll probably do a few 50ks here and there.  There is a cool night trail series that starts in June that has some 60ks as the long distance.

I was planning my first 140.6 for REV3 CP in Sept, but not sure now.  I might use that time to prepare for Rocky Racoon 2014 instead.

Well I am getting into trail running and looking at Ultras. I have signed up for the Stump JUmp 50K in October. It is my only official ultra but I am doing a half and several other long races to prepare for it. I have looked at a 50 miler but I am going to wait till after the 50k and see how I feel. If 2013 goes well I have already found tons of races in 2014 I want to do as long as I am able to build a good base.

Ok, here's my plan:  Maine Coast Marathon in May, Around the Lake Marathon in July (also a 12hr and 24hr race, but that's not my goal this time) leading up to the Ghost Train Rail Race, which I will do 50 miles of as my first ultra.  I'd love to do the Fall 50 in Door County too--my family's in WI and I love Door County!  But that'll have to be another year.  I'm hoping I can figure out how to train for this by going to all the ultra websites and researching this forum!  I guess I'm not lurking any more

There are some crazy people doing some crazy stuff, but I think that this tops the list.  Good luck to you.   And good luck to everyone else.  Seems like some good races planned this year!

Tony, I believe a reunion under the moonlight is in our near future. My sister lives about an hour from the lake. I've even been to that lake. I know three other ultra athletes who are competing, and a fourth who is supporting. They've invited me to join them (not to compete). It's like the universe is telling me GO.

BTW, I saw Vincenzo Catalano and Paul Grimm at the Double this weekend. Vincenzo was sick, Paul was in great shape.

You must know my friends Kamil and Chuck. Kamil only finished 24 ironmans due to sickness. He did finish the decairon in Mexico in 260 hours. So that was 34 irons in 2 months.
