NOTE: All of this is a work in progress and depends on finances, the continuing goodwill of my loving husband, and nothing more interesting coming up. I’m sure that I’ll add in some local 5Ks and 10Ks, some orienteering meets, some mountain bike races, and some organized (and possibly disorganized) rides. Maybe a triathlon? Who knows.

4/13/13 Ava Brown Memorial 5K 2nd woman overall, 1st place AG

5/4/13 Cedar Cross – 100is miles of Missouri by bike over primarily gravel roads. 2nd last finisher overall, last woman. 🙂
5/19/13 Broemmelsiek Challenge mountain bike race – marathon (3 hr) division
June:
6/1/13 Dirty Kanza 200 DNF. Again.
6/22/13 Indian Camp Creek 12hour mountain bike race – this is tentative and could get scrapped if vacation plans get in the way. I’d like to redeem myself from last year, and as bad as the last lap was last year, the rest of the race was a good experience. The fact is that without a race forcing me to keep riding, I tend to chicken out after a couple hours.
July:

- 9/22/13 La Vista Park

Skippo 30k – I’d like this to be terrible because I’m running so hard rather than terrible because I can barely hobble like last year.
December:
1/7/13 Castlewood 8-hour adventure race – either racing or volunteering…I definitely don’t want to miss it!
Pere Marquette Endurance Trail Run – I’ll be looking for a new PR and a better running experience than this last race.
