The complete list of potential races

They will be posted by Monday, December 15, 2008. If I don't know what I have planned, good lord, someone help me. Key races, such as the "anchor" races (Marathons, Half Ironman [or Ironman 70.3], Century and Metric Century Rides) and key Team in Training (TnT) races (Nations Tri, Disney Marathon and Half Marathon, Tahoe Century are almost certain) are "set in stone". Whether that stone is granite or sandstone...I will know this weekend.

Join me in a race with TnT. Support the mission. You know you want to.
