So, the wife has essentially given the green light on any 70.3+ if there’s a shorter race she can do (sprint/oly). I know Tremblant, Quassy (still?), HITS series, Lake George (we miss Timberman). Preference is Northeast/Mid-Atlantic.

Lake Logan and white lake both in NC and I believe both offer half, ply, and sprint.

Pumpkinman in South Berwick, ME on the New Hampshire border has Sprint on Sat and Oly and half on Sunday at the beginning of September. Haven't done it yet but it gets great reviews - heading there this year!

I don't believe Quassy will get you there now it's an IM race. There is no longer an associated oly (nor at OOB or Williamsburg).

St. Andrews is no more. Lost it when Rev3 gave up the ghost. Hopefully it comes back...I wanted to do that race!

I would look at Michigan Titanium, there is a Full, Half, and Olympic if you want to do it this year. Or, they also run the Grand Rapids Triathlon in the beginning of June, Half, Olympic, and Sprint. There are some super fast guys that do that race. So, if you want to get some of the competition of IM branded race at a fraction of the price and still a big race feel that's the ideal race in my opinion. I am definitely going back next year.

Kinetic Multisports has a few triathlon festivals of half distances paired with Oly on the same day (and sprint, which is usually Sunday). Kinetic is in May in Virginia, Patriots (Jamestown VA) is September, Savageman (MD) is Sept, and Watermans (Eastern shore of MD) is in late September.
This is great help. Sad to hear St Andrews is done, that was on my list. Anyway, thanks all.
