Had you asked me 18 days ago what my plans were for the first 8 months of the year were and I would have said this;
- Calico Ghost Town 50k
- Tour of Sufferlandria
- Sean O’Brien 50k
- Leona Divide 50m
- Grand Canyon R2R2R
- TransRockiesRun Run 6
Then this happened;
Then this happened;
So now it’s kinda like this...sorta...ish!
- Calico Ghost Town 50k – Registered
- Tour of Sufferlandria – Registered
Sean O’Brien 50k…well maybe, we’re waitlisted- Bandit 50k – depends on the above!
- Leona Divide 50m - Registered
Grand Canyon R2R2R– not enough time for Becca to recover before IM Boulder, no worries, it’s been there a few years and I am sure it will be there for a few more!TransRockiesRun Run 6– looked at the finances on this one and it costed out at $7,000+, and the house needs painting and the closets need remodeling, and I need (don’t want, but need) a new car…being an adult sucks!
Remaining possibilities;
- Cuyamaca 100k Registration opens June 15th…yeah I set a reminder for that!
- Waldo 100k It’s a lottery which announces the run list on March 1st
- Backbone Trail 70 miler (self supported) There’s something to be said for being in control of you own destiny! I have run the entire thing but in sections; here, here and here.
The elevations South to North (approx 15,000’ of gain)
And…we’ll see!
It’s all good!
