I'm very excited about having my first 'full' triathlon season. If you're a member of USAT (USA Triathlon), you need need to complete 3 USAT sanctioned events before you qualify for a national ranking. I might be 74,398 out of 75,202, but at least I'll be ranked! Plus, having run the Miami Marathon (26.2 miles) and Country Music Half Marathon (13.1 miles) already this year, I'm glad I don't have to run more than 6 miles at any point this summer. I plan on doing one a month.
June 5- Mach 10 Triathlon, -16 mile bike only, doing a relay with Kevin Herrington (swim) and Eddy (run). Set up another relay team of Michael Norvell (swim), Shawn Ellis (bike), and Tom Harmon (run).
June 12- Harpeth River Ride (42 mile version) I'd love to do this one, but fear it might be overkill. 1,500 riders with a police escort through Cool Spring to downtown Franklin, out into the country. Pretty cool!
June 26- Old Hickory Lakes Triathlon, (400 yd swim / 1.5 mi run / 12.5 mi bike / 1.5 mi run)
-----
July 24- Lake James Triathlon, Nebo (Winston-Salem), NC- Swim 750 meters, Bike 22 Miles, Run 3.1 Miles
OR
July 25- Music City Sprint Triathlon, Nashville, TN- 400 yd swim / 20k bike / 5k run.

So, what are your plans for staying in shape and having fun this summer?
