So, big excitement in the air. I got picked in the Western States 100 lottery. A roughly 15% chance and I made it. Goes to show that when you aren't really planning on something happening, then it does. So I immediately signed up for Vermont 100, Leadville 100, and I'm already in the lottery for the Wasatch 100. Let the training begin. I'm thinking now I should get a coach. I would love to go sub-24 at Western, Vermont and Leadville, and sub-30 at Wasatch. That's going to take some serious training and a coach may be the help I need to do that.
So, here's the new updated race/significant run schedule.
1/29-Winter Snowshoe Festival-probably the 25k, but maybe the 50k
2/12-Striders Winter Training Series 5K
2/19-Moab Red Hot 50K
2/26-Striders Winter Training Series 10K
3/12-Striders Winter Training Series 10 mile
3/25-3/26-Antelope Island Buffalo Run-my little gift to the ultrarunning world. I'm expecting around 600 runners in 2011
4/2-Striders Winter Training Series half marathon
4/16-Grand Canyon double crossing
4/23-Red Mountain 50K
5/14-Grandeur Peak "fun" run
5/21-Timp Trail Marathon
5/28-Pocatello 50 mile
6/4-Squaw Peak 50 mile
6/11-Boise Half Ironman
6/25-Western States 100
7/16-Vermont 100
8/6-Zion Traverse-This is about the only weekend I could do this one. I may have to put this run off until 2012.
8/20-Leadville 100
9/9-Wasatch 100
9/18-Rock Cut Hobo Run 50K
10/15-Mountain View Trail Half Marathon
11/5-Antelope Island 100K
That's quite the schedule! Sounds like an epic year. Enjoy, good luck, and see you on the trails.
