Triathlon

So, what is my triathlon schedule looking like in 2010? Well, I have to say that I’ve thought about it quite a bit but have only signed up for one race. The big question mark was if the trip to niger was going to happen and I have a plane ticket!

Now, they say that I should be able to run in the hospital compound. The route is maybe ½ mile…that is a lot of laps! So, I don’t think I’ll be ready for a ½ Ironman a month after I get back.

Here are some ideas:

April 10th---Kemah, TX---open water sprint triathlon
April 29th—Galveston, TX---open water Olympic distance tri (I wish I could do the ½!)
May 31st—Austin, TX ---Olympic distance (depends on a conference schedule)
June 27th—Pearland, TX ---sprint distance
August 8th—cypress, tx---sprint tri
August 28th---Clearlake, TX—olympic
Sept 26th---Houston Triathlon—olympic
Oct 17th—Sugarland TX—sprint
Oct 31st—Austin, TX---half ironman

i'm not sure if i'll do all of these, but probably the majority. i was hoping to get another half in, but i'm going to have to look at some other options. if another half is in the picture, than i'm going to have to cut out some of these races. i was hoping to have a new bike for this season, but the trip is taking that allocated money...definitely worth it!
