May 5-7 2006 Wildflower!!! thinking Oly course: 1.5 k swim, 40k bike, 10k run. My first big 'A' race.

May 21 2006 Newport Beach Tri Sprint 1/2 mile swim, 12 mile bike, 5K run

• Carlsbad Sprint 1K Swim, 25K Bike, 5K Run
• Solana Beach Sprint 1/4 Mile Ocean Swim, 9 Mile Bike, 3 Mile Run
• Redondo Sprint 1/2 mile swim, 6 mile bike, 2 mile scenic run (really kind of too short -- may just volunteer)

Aug 25-27 2006 Santa Barbara Tri: 1 mile swim, 34 mile bike, 10 mile run (this would be one of my 'A' races and really the big one I'm going to focus on)

Late September 2006 Nautica Malibu Sprint 1/2 mile swim, 18 mile bike, 4 mile run ('A' race)

October 2006 Hermosa Day at the Beach Sprint 1/4 mile swim, 10 mile bike, 3 mile run (despite getting my ass kicked this year in the surf)

October 2006 Long Beach Bike Tour: so much fun this year I'm gonna do it next year too
