Hi Barbara,
Thank you for contacting TriathaNewbie.com!

You are officially one of THE coolest people we know, not just because you’re a super planner, but because you are planning on doing this with your friends and family for your 60th birthday!

Right now, the schedules for 2010 are trickling out so there’s not much listed for the 2010 fall schedule.
Here you go:

We don’t see these listed for 2010, but the following triathlons were run in 2009. You could probably keep an eye on the websites for updates:

  • Turkey Triathlon (CA) - Swim .5 mile, Bike 14 miles, Run 4.5 miles

    www.renegaderaceseries.com
  • The Dirty Du (TX) - Run 3.1 miles, Mountain Bike 12 miles, Run 3.1 miles

Check back with us in March or April and we’ll do another search for you. Where we will be further into the season, we’re sure the results will be better. If you end up finding something on your own, please be sure to email us again and tell us all about it. Posting a great story like this will certainly inspire others!

Be well.
