Yikes, that's a long way to plan ahead! :shock:
I'll play, though. These aren't PLANS... they're IDEAS right now. ;)

April- I'd like to bring some vengeance to Montreal for the 21K Mtl.
May- I'm registered for the Mississauga half (it was $25 for early registration!), and I know I'll do the Sporting Life10K.
June- I'll most likely do the Bread and Honey 15K.

I'd like to do some 5K's here and there as well, possibly the Beach Spring Sprint in early April, or some St. Patty's day 5K, or something.

I make NO promises about winter races. If it's not too terrible, I'll do some. If it is terrible, I won't. :)

cripes - I haven't mapped out 2011 yet since I still have my A race for 2010 is still coming up!

At this point though, rough plan and known stuff:

May - there'll be a half marathon here
June - prob Wasa Oly tri
July - Great White North Tri relay - bike leg (my husband, tri husband and me)
Later in July - Magrath Oly Tri
the week after that - Sylvan Half Ironman
end of Aug - Ironman Canada
Oct - something in San Fran (provided team gets in)
Race Hard. Race Happy.

Wouldn't miss the Bread&Honey 15km or the Utica Boilermaker 15km, and got the super cheap Mississauga half marathon deal. Other than that, takin' it as it comes.
