I am a big believer in triathletes spreading their wings a little, and trying events other than triathlons. There are so many options out there for finding an endurance challenge.
Last year, I chose to try a SwimRun race. SwimRun NC was an amazing experience. I had so much fun, that I know it will not be my last SwimRun event. In 2020, when all of my races were cancelled due to the pandemic, I chose to run a local trail called the Rachel Carson trail. This was my first ever ultrarun, and again, I had so much fun doing it.
This year, I only have two confirmed races remaining on my schedule. The Mighty Moraine Man Olympic race in May and Ironman 70.3 Musselman in July. I am still in the process of deciding what other events I will do, as we head into late summer and the fall.
Based on my experiences over the past two years, I do know that I want to try something different again. It is fun to do endurance events, other than triathlons. What events do you think I would enjoy?
