I haven't quite given up on the idea of a middle distance next year, but it depends on how the winter training goes. I really wanted to do new york, but that's out of the question financially.

I'm definitely doing Tranent, East Fife and Haddington, definitely NOT doing New Year's. That leaves the high season up for grabs, but I'd really like to do Gullane and a couple more open water events (at least one more Oly). I'm hoping to do the Loch Lomond Highland Games if they're running again: Loch Ore OW sprint if not. Has the 2009 calendar been published yet?
