Our upcoming Races

I have some races mapped out to get us to the half ironman. The goal is to do something about once a month to keep us moving. Here is what's on the calendar.


  1. 9/27 (Sunday) Nathan's triathlon in Tempe
    http://redrockco.com/nathan-triathlonsprint
    sprint distance (750m swim/ 12.4 mile bike/ 3.1 mile run) or
    olympic distance (1500m swim/24.8 mile bike/ 6.2 mile run)
    This is a big race in Tempe. Longer open water swim. 750m will be very challenging.

  2. 10/4 (Sunday) Mission Bay triathlon in San Diego http://www.kozenterprises.com/Triathlons/missiondf84.htm
    sprint distance (500 open water swim in bay with a wetsuit/ 15k bike/ 5k run)
    This is the Frank race. I want to support my friend in his first triathlon. I also want to try a short race in a bay with a wetsuit before the half ironman.
    This race is SOLD OUT!

  3. 10/17 (Saturday) Powell3 in Page, AZ
    http://www.powell3.com/
    Olympic Distance - 1500 m open water swim/24 bike/ 6.2 run
    (This also has a sprint distance 750/12/3.1)
    I really need to do a long open water swim before the half ironman. This race will also require a wetsuit. This swim distance is pretty close to the half ironman swim distance.

  4. 11/21 (Saturday) Tour de Tucson in Tucson
    http://www.perimeterbicycling.com/!ETT/ETThome.html
    109, 80, 67 or 35 miles
    Rosiers are riding 67 miles, Sanchez family is riding 30 miles with Frank pulling the kids behind him

  5. 11/26 (Thanksgiving) Goodyear triathlon http://www.active.com/page/Event_Details.htm?event_id=1651810&assetId=41910ac6-2781-4225-bb18-42755ededede
    Reverse sprint tri - 2 mile run/ 13 mile bike/ 400 m swim
    Individual: $69 until 11/8/09; $79 thereafter
    ** This depends on if I can walk after 67 miles on the bike ride.

  6. 1/17 (Saturday) PF Chang's Full Marathon in Phoenix
    http://www.rnraz.com/
    26.2 mile run

  7. 3/6 (Saturday) Valley of the Sun Half Marathon http://www.valleyofthesunmarathon.com/

    1.2 mile swim/ 56 mile bike/ 13.1 mile run

Peter is considering adding the Pabst Blue Ribbon triathlon on October 10th. He is intrigued by the slip n slide finish. (Boys!)
