2012 Tentative Race Calendar

After several weeks of research, multiple rough drafts, and continuously putting off finalizing my plans for 2012, I finally hammered out my race calendar when I was sick as hell and missed two days of work this week. This year I plan to run my first 100 mile race(s), a few 50 milers, redeem myself in the Grand Canyon R2R2R, and run a Fat Ass race or two. I also have hopes of qualifying for both Western States and Ultra Trail du Mont Blanc for 2013. This may seem a little ambitious, but it’s the only way I know how to do things.
