<p>Nope May 2010 is 28 months from September 2012 (Note: They cancelled 2011 WC race) - I have no qualifying races in the March 2011 - June 12, 2012 qualifying window.  Its back to scratch.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I agree the qualifying rules and period - I just have to get this old tub of lard fat-ass body back into shape</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Race #1 NorthCoast 24 - Although only 4 weeks after Leadville 100M</p>
<p>Race #2 Some December 24 hour race</p>

<p>*  San Francisco (<a href="http://www.coastaltrailruns.com/nyod_new_year_one_day.html" target="_blank">http://www.coastaltrailruns.com/nyod_new_year_one_day.html</a>)</p>
<p>*  Others?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Race #3 An April - June 12 Race</p>

<p>I ran Freedom park in NC last year (2009-10) on NYE and it was a good race, almost a mile loop, almost flat, but not quite, so there is some variation in muscles used. The weather can be very very cold and miserable.</p>

<p>Meri - When I think of Freedon Park, I think cold</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Mutt - When I think Peanut Island - I think of sweating something off</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I think I will try and hit either ATW or Desert Solstice in AZ if they have the races - They are a bit in flux right now.</p>

<p>All the info I have</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I have no idea what this year will bring - I am just enjoying running and trying to find more balance than the last couple of years.  It may mean I will not be able to muster the needed 24 hour mileage - I am OK with that ... But I am sure going to try.</p>

<p>well, that's frustrating ... but at least they tried to find substitutes  ... what a bummer  :-(</p>
