I've raced two real events so far this year. I'll be in the Tour de Clermont cycling event Oct 3, possibly the Mermaid 2 mi OWS Oct 11, and the 1/3rd GFT on Oct 24. I have more events scheduled for Nov and Dec.

This looks like a solid race lineup!

Busso 70.3 in 15 days time.
Will be great. Local only race due to border closures but organisers have over 1000 entries overall to date.
Part of me can't wait, part of me is a bit anxious as it has been a long time between drinks....

was meant to be doing a real honest-to-goodness half marathon next weekend. (things here in switzerland are fairly open.)

was initially shooting for a PB, on the back of a half ironman in september. but for 10 days of my 3-week build i've had a nasty sinus infection, and now one of my kids is quite sick . . . it ain't looking great. may duck out of this one and live to fight another day.

Sometimes, a less than perfect final stretch can give the rest and recovery you need to have a great day out....

Hope you feel better

I will run a 50k in 9 days, with lots of COVID-19 precautions, and the fields split up in small start groups based on speed projected.

Did a 100 miler last weekend. Went well, a little clustered at the start but everyone was asked to wear masks when in groups and at all aid stations. Other than the torrential rain for the first 70 miles it was nice to be out.

Herbert -
I’m racing SwimRun Austin on Nov 8. If I didn’t live in the area I probably wouldn’t travel for it - but I’m looking forward to it since it is the first year of the race.

Sorry that your race couldn’t happen this year. Are you coming to Austin by any chance?

Best,

Sub 19. Overall it was a great day and a PR (out of 2 100's) as the course was, elevation wise, much easier. The rain probably negated some of that but Patrick Reagan knocked about 30 minutes off the prior record.

Bayshore 70.4 in Long Beach on November 4, the fact that I am not nearly in good enough shape notwithstanding.

Trail Half Marathon in small town in Northern WI where there is less restriction compared to being in Dane County (Madison area). Point to point so have to take a bus to the start--only people on the bus are in your wave--one person per seat. Wear a mask until you start. Waves start 10 minutes apart.
