2011 Plan (so far...)

My plan for 2011 is to complete 6 (7?) full marathons and a sprinkling of half marathons that I will use as training runs. This is a lofty goal especially since I will be starting of the year in full preparation for my board exams and also in the midst of my doctoral program. Makes for quite an interesting year, I think!
Anyways, so far I have signed up for the following races:

Birmingham, Alabama on Feb 13
Georgia Marathon, Atlanta on Mar 20
Oklahoma City marathon on May 1
Miami Beach 13.1 on Mar 6

that's the plan, so far....

To Dream....

There are some races that I would love to run...some for obvious reason's and other's for sentimental reason's.
Here's some of my race wish list:

Towards my 50 state challenge:
1. New York City Marathon (in 2013...if I don't get in before with the lottery)
2. Oklahoma City Memorial Marathon (to honour those who fell in the bombing)
3. New Orleans Mardi Gras (because it would be fun)
4. San Francisco Nike Women's Marathon (for the Tiffany necklace!)
5. Honolulu Marathon (I just want to visit Hawaii)
6. Boston Marathon (when I'm 85yrs old or if I do it through a charity!)

Towards my 7 Continent Challenge:
1. Comrades Marathon (every South Africans Dream!)
2. The Great Wall of China Marathon
3. London Marathon
4. Berlin Marathon (London and Berlin are part of the world majors)
5. Antarctica marathon (it's the only way I could visit my last continent (I have visited 6 of 7))

Towards the World majors:
1. Chicago
2. Boston
3. London
4. Berlin
5. New York
