I find that adding lots of races to my portfolio is the single best way to remember when all the races are and their details, but I may actually only end up running 1 out 5 I've listed in my portfolio. I think a lot of people do this...

When you add a race to your portfolio you can go to 'your Comments' where there's a 'Definitely doing this?' - Yes/No option to choose. When listed in your portfolio, the 'No's appear in a lighter font than the 'Yes's. Done my review as best I can remember - look forward to seeing the output.

EarlyRiser Mar 2015 9:16pm, 3 Mar 2015 1,066 posts	Quote Pin EarlyRiser Not liking this. For a lot of us a PB attempt is not realistic - advancing years and all that. Bit demoralising to have a big red No against all my current races. How about at least an SB (season's best) option?
