My race season for 2012 is now coming into shape. Originally I was just planning on a peak in Aug/Sept/Oct... but I think that is too far off to be the first big goal. So, today, I signed up for one of those races that I've thought "someday I need to do that one"... Wildflower. This is a half Ironman distance race on May 5th (and a tough one at that). And then I will have a bit of a lull over the summer and then another peak for the August/September/October races. The August race is the Mountain Man half, in September I'm going to revisit my first ever race at Xterra Deuces Wild, and then in October I'm thinking my last big race will be the 70.3 in Austin. If I strike lightning there is also the Hawaii Ironman in October, but I'm pretty much assuming that will not happen.
So, from now to Wildflower is 16 weeks. I think I will redo the 13 weeks to a half-Ironman plan that I did for Boise in 2010. The next 3 weeks will be continuing my current weight training / general start-of-season warming up stuff.
