            In March I am running my first Half Marathon and than I have planned to register for these races
 Phoenix Half Marathon 03/2014
 Splash Mob 5K 07/2014 (first 5K I ran after many years of not running, want to run again to see how much I have improved)
 Disney Half Marathon 08/29/2014 ( assuming I can register before it sells out)
 A Race for Maggies Place 10K 10/2014 (Third 10k that I ran liked the course will run again to see how I improved)
 Woman's Running Series Scottsdale Half Marathon 11/2014

            I'd love to do a few races next year. Mixture between duathlons, running and mountain biking. This will all come down to whether i'm studying full time next year and can manage my time wisely.

 Feb 23, 2014 - Half in the Hamptons, HM, Hampton Beach, NH.
 I'll probably do the Twin Lights Half in Gloucester, MA in May because it was fun last year.
 Of course I'm waiting on putting together my full schedule because I'm still deciding if it's time to pull the trigger and run a full.0
- 
            so far I only have a local half marathon at the end of March and then Edinburgh marathon on 25th May
 would like to do the Berlin marathon (September I think) if I survive/enjoy the distance in May, can't think much beyond Edinburgh at the moment0
- 
            So far for the year I have a full marathon Jan. 19, a 4 mile race in February and a half marathon in March. I am also hoping to do my first sprint Tri this spring. April to September are too hot here to do much for racing.0

            I'm already registered for the Austin Half Marathon in February. I ran it last year with a sprained ankle and bad plantar fasciitis. I'm going to see how well I can do uninjured.
 I don't have anything else planned until October when I'm planning to do the Austin Distance Challenge which is 6 races starting with a 10K, then a 10 mile, a half marathon, a 30K, another half marathon, and then it ends with the Austin Marathon in February 2015.
 ETA: This is the schedule for the races for this year's Distance Challenge so I'm assuming next year's will be the same:
 Oct. 6, 2013 - IBM Uptown Classic 10k
 Oct. 27, 2013 - Run For The Water 10 mile race
 Dec. 8, 2013 - Decker Challenge Half Marathon
 Jan. 5, 2014 - Rogue Distance Festival 30K
 Jan. 19, 2014 - 3M Half Marathon
 Feb. 16, 2014 - Austin Marathon
 Should be fun.0

            I haven't registered for anything yet, but I'm basically planning a 5K every month from March through September.
 4 of them are part of a Beer Run series called Race the Bar (March, May, September, November). I've run some of these before. Each one has a longer option, too. I've run the 8K and the 10K, but I plan on sticking to the 5K options next year. I've gotten age group placements in these races before, so I hope to repeat that and maybe even place in the series as a whole.
 In April, I'm planning a 3.5 mile trail race, which is the short option accompanying the trail half marathon I did this year, which was my favorite race yet.
 In June, there's a 5-race track event (100, 400, 800, mile, XC 5K). I'm mostly interested in the mile and the 5K at this one.
 For July, I'm looking at a popular 5K that's also the state championship. I have no hope at any kind of award, but this is the race I'm planning on peaking for.
 There are a lot of local races in the late summer/early fall, so I'll look to do a few of those (there are at least 3 within 2 miles of my house).
 If all goes well, and I've been able to meet my training and weight loss goals, in the fall I'll decide whether or not to start training for a mountainous 54 mile ultra.0
- 
            I'm registered for the following races so far:
 May 4th - WPS Half Marathon
 July 26th - Mud Hero (6K, 15 Obstacle)
 I am going to register for this as well:
 June 15 - Manitoba Marathon
 I'm waiting to find out the exact dates of a business seminar that will have me in St.Louis, if timing is right I will also do the WFPS Half Marathon in October 2014.
 I just may throw a couple 5 or 10Ks in there last minute if the timing (and funding) are right.0
- 
            Jan- Houston Marathon
 April- 70.3 New Orleans and Kemah Olympic Triathlon
 August- Memorial Hermann Bridgeland Triathlon
 Sept- HyVee 5150 US Championships
 Oct- 70.3 Austin0

            I'm feeling really disorganized after reading some of your plans!! Coming up I've got...
 Woodside 35k (this is a trail run, it's actually at the very end of December)
 The San Jose 408k - March (this is an 8k race, SJ's main area code is 408)
 Santa Cruz Half Marathon - April
 Big Sur Marathon - April
 SF Marathon (this is a maybe) - July
 Skyline to Sea 50k (trail race) - October (?... date TBD)
 I will probably throw in several trail races if I can and potentially the Capitola Half Marathon in May depending on how I feel after Big Sur.0
- 
            this weekend I'm doing double marathons (a 55k trail, and then dallas marathon) but I'm afraid of the trail race being canceled b/c of the impending winter weather/storm. should I pull that off, then my schedule is like this:
 Jan 1 : Cedar Hill Trail run, 20k
 Jan 11: Bandera 100k trail run
 if I can only run one race this weekend, then it will be
 Jan 11: Bandera 50k trail run
 Feb 8 Rocky Raccoon 50 mile trail run
 I haven't registered for any of those, and I don't like to train for more than 2 mths for anything, plus I don't plan ahead much.0
- 
            My goal for 2014 is to run at least 1 race every month. Here's what I've got planned so far -

 February - Black Canyon Rim Romp (P - this is actually a snowshoe race!)
 March - Gemini Adventures 24 Hours of Moab 50K - 3/22/14 (R)

 I saw 408k before I read the contents of the parentheses and went HOLY CRAP!!!!
 :laugh:0
- 
            So far I'm just signed up for the Yuengling Shamrock Half Marathon in VA Beach in March. After reading these I feel like I need to go fill in my schedule, haha.0
- 
            Shamrock Marathon - Virginia Beach
 Knoxville TN Marathon
 Carmel Marathon - Indiana
 Glass City Marathon - Ohio
 Capital City Half Marathon - Ohio
 Those are definates. More to come.0
- 
            My race schedule for 2014:
 February 2014-Krispy Kreme Challenge (with my boys woohoo)
 March 2014-RnR Washington DC Half**
 April 2014- Inaugural RnR Half Marathon in Raleigh
 May 2014-Marine Corps Historic Half (maybe, depending on how I feel after the prior 2 halfs)
 or the USO Run for the Troops 5k (I can run it with my boys, my oldest is getting pretty fast!)
 October 2014-MARINE CORPS MARATHON!!!!
 I am really not messing around with anything between May and October, though I might try for a 10k if I can find it. I also entered the lottery to try to run the Cherry Blossom 10 miler in DC in APril but that is still in the air and up to the whims of fate.0
- 
            Right now just the Rugged Maniac in July in Englishtown, NJ0
- 
            December is lottery month for a lot of trail ultras so 2014 won't solidify for me for another couple of weeks. Most of the races I will put money down on will be in the 50k and longer distances. One thing I do know for sure, I'll do my first 100 miler in 2014.0
- 
            Wow, I love reading about everyone's race plans for next year!! For myself, I'm hoping to do (but haven't registered for any yet):
 Run for Rural Medicine 10K (this is just a "fun run" put on by my medical school), Victoria BC - April 7 2014
 TC 10K, Victoria BC - April 27 2014
 BMO Vancouver Half Marathon, Vancouver BC - May 4 2014
 Lululemon SeaWheeze Half Marathon, Vancouver BC - August 23 2014
 And maaaaybe (depending on how the year's training goes and if I can bulid up my running base to be able to train for a full):
 Goodlife Fitness Victoria Marathon (otherwise Half Marathon), Victoria BC - October 12, 20140
- 
            
 The San Jose 408k - March (this is an 8k race, SJ's main area code is 408)
 I saw 408k before I read the contents of the parentheses and went HOLY CRAP!!!!
 :laugh:
 Yeah, I always have to add additional information for that race - while I do have my sights set on longer distances, a 408k race is most definitely not in the cards!0
- 
            So far I'm registered for 2 races:
 - March 30: Hamilton, Ontario - Around the Bay 30k
 - May 25: Ottawa, Ontario - Race weekend Half Marathon
 I'm planning on doing:
 - A 5K in the spring for a PR
 - A silly color run with one of my friend (DTBD)
 - Ottawa, Ontario - Army Run 5k or half (depends on the next race...) in september
 - Toronto, Ontario - Waterfront MARATHON (depends how I handle the 30k + the training) in october
 If I'm not doing the Marathon in october I'll be doing it May 2015.
 Annnnnnnd my running calendar is planned until october 2014 already (yep I'm anal like that!!)0
