Here's my current 2015 schedule:
Jan 18 - 50k - Road
Jan 25 - Marathon (1 week after a 50k, will probably fall over dead during race)
Mar 1 - Half
Mar 15 - Half
Jul 18-19 - 100 Miler - Road (50 Saturday and 50 Sunday)
Thinking about signing up for:
Apr 26 - 100k - Road
Undecided 50 miler
I'd really like to run a 13.1/26.2/31/50/62/100 next year. If I do the 100k then I just need to do a 50 miler. While I am doing 50 miles once for my 100 miler, since it is 2 days, but I want to do an actual 50 mile event. So I gotta find one, I have some ideas but nothing setup yet.

Haha, exactly. The 50k and marathon are close together, but the 50k came up recently and is like an hour from me, so I want to do it. The marathon is part of a 5 races series (so are both half marathons) that I'm doing. Besides that they're fairly spread out.
Being in FL I can't, well, not easily, do any sort of good elevation training, so I don't know if I can go do Leadville, ya know? I'd love to try, if you guys are doing it again this year may haps I will try to get in. Or Run Rabbit Run, I dunno that race just seems awesome.
If I complete that 50/50 my belt buckle will say otherwise sir! But really I think it seems interesting, its unusual. Also, it is on the road, in SC, in July. You gonna tell me that hot mess isn't a real 100? On the site they said they moved the course a year or two ago because there was too much shade on the old one!
Maybe I'll look at the Keys 50/100 in May, for another hot road race, hooray!

Just a 1/2 marathon in January and the LA Marathon in March.
I've yet to find my mid life crisis.

For me it revolves around I turn 30 on December 28th and want to run 2000 miles next year. Not a mid life crisis, but a hard goal to achieve. I'm talking myself into doing the Keys 100 in May now, lol. 16 weeks after my marathon in January, plenty of time to train. Then another 9 weeks to my double 50. It all sounds so doable, I'm real good at psyching myself up into races, lol. But being signed up for a race keeps me going and keeps me accountable, I (almost) always get out there and do my training runs because I know I need to.
I still need a back half of year plan.
Oh, and in the training Lake Sonoma falls right in line with the Keys 100 training! If only I had unlimited money...

Chris Jones will be proud! I know you're gunning for top 10 at AR, ainchya?
Well my coach mentioned this recently in an email...
"Our goal is to get you fast and ready to handle 100+ mile base weeks over the winter."
So I'lll either be faster than ever or completely burnt out.

God damn. In peak season, I'm doing around 100 miles a week on the bike. 100 miles a week running is mad L33T. Fuck.
I have nothing planned for events yet. I'm sure there will be a 5/10k and my usual weekly TT's.
There's a Spring (bike) classic called "Rhodekill" (week before Battenkill in NY) that I'll probably try out. Road and dirt/gravel combo.

Don't you run 25-30 miles/week? What's a 'hard core' runner then?

I got away from the "fast" mentality long ago.
Didn't you mention signing up as a way to keep motivated? Been working for me (as well as meeting other runners).

Yea, I've got non-runner ism for days over here. The though of attempting a 70.3 or that I have 2 actual halves on My schedule already (and paid for!) keeps me pounding out my weekly 15-ish I figure another year of this and I can check off a 26.2--we'll see lol cry
The half and full Ironman races are in my house of cards. There is an Oceanside 70.3 that doesn't occur until early 2016. But signups open in a few months.
By comparison, the Vineman 70.3 sold out in under 20 hours this year.
And if you're willing to put in the time, I foresee a marathon in your future.

yea vineman has too many elites/pros in it, I figure they can have it. Wildflower seems to have more my caliber of people in it [many over 6 hrs in the 70.3, a couple even around 8h...aka #nailed_it :D]
I have no reason to think that maybe 2016 I can finish a 26.2. A full iron would involve me testing the 17hr limit most likely lol. How long does it take to walk 26.2? 7 if you really push it? lol
so say swim the 2.6 or whatever in an hour or so, bike the century++ [112] in like 7, walk the marathon in 7.... #nailed_itwith2hrs_2_spare
I will grudgingly admit that assuming I can run a 4:00:00-ish marathon at some point, that I'll attempt a bucket-item 140.6
The 1/2 marathon was the main thing standing in the way of me doing a 70.3, which is why I have a few of those spattered around and maybe I'll try Wildflower in may [just to finish upright and having not walked the 1/2 marathon ideally although it's hilly as fuck]

yea no I mean having a run-only/PR-level 26.2 of 4:00:00, I'm sure that means in an IM I'd be around 7:00:00 lol

That's why I'm going back to LA this year. Did the bucket list. Got a faster time at OC for family bragging rights. Now want the sub-4 hour time.

Possibly February 7/8 - IBJJF Houston Open. American Grappling Federation and Kozen Fighter do not have 2015 schedules up yet so I don't know when they will be. I only competed 4 times this year so I need to step it up next year.

I'd think that after Leadville, a full IM would be child's play to you. I was just thinking about that yesterday for some reason

the full IM Louisville or at the very least half IM Muncie, Indiana is a goal of mine. Im there on the run, but I have a hard time training for the swim and bike with a 13 month old.
*side note* I read Dean Karnazes' Ultramarathon Man:Confessions of an all-night runner a couple years back, and it gives great motivation and insight on some badass runs (saw Ironmom posted the Western States)
