"A" race for '07 - help me choose	Can't Post

Which one should I target as my 'A' race for this season. They are too close together to peak for both, so I need to make a choice

Newfoundland 70.3 - July 28
Halifax OneOOne - Sept 1.

I'm thinking maybe using Halifax as my A race, and just using Newfoundland as a long training day. I just have nothing to compare to for the 101 distance. I at least have a 70.3 PR (from Ralphs), so It makes more sense to me to peak for Newfoundland. But if I peak for Newfoundland and race it hard, it will take a few days to a week to recover, and I like having my season goal race to be my last race.

What would you do.

I would A race the 101. Seems logical since it is at the end of the summer and a longer race.
I think your thinking is sound. :)

I'm in Halifax. Summer is over 2nd week in August, so really Newfoundland is the end of the summer race.

I haven't signed up yet for the 101, but I most likely will
