Yes, you do have a lot of long distance races coming up. Personally, I would steer you towards a half marathon in the spring to prep you for the half ironman in the summer and full marathon in the fall. Good luck. Hey Beagle.

I don't think an April marathon necessarily would screw up your plans to peak in the summer for the triathlon as long as you have enough of a running base. If it's going to take an all out commitment to be ready for the marathon, it may be hard to recover from that and then train enough for the triathlon. But it sounds from your earlier posts like your overall fitness base and running base are pretty strong, so you should be able to pull it off. Good luck!
