Thread title says it all. Will NY announce her later or will she perhaps do the US Champs in Sacramento in December?

Disney FTW.
Somewhere in Japan or Dubai in January.
Both Chicago or Ny would expose her for what she is. Not a top 5 American.

Good thing those races don't qualify you for the Olympics.
Marine Corps - needs to learn how to win, even if she only runs 2:40 or so.
She said on the Lindsey Hein podcast on July 27th she was targeting a 12 week build up and she would announce which race in the following week (Hinted at Berlin, ChiTown, NYC).
I'm thinking at this point she is injured and won't be racing.
Twin Cities
Gwen is not 5'10." She is more like 5'9.5"
I'm thinking either hartford or steamtown...
Richmond or Indy Monumental
I have been wondering who will run for the elites in Twin Cities, as the marathon falls on the same day as Chicago's. Poor planning... Maybe she will do Twin Cities, but I was thinking of CIM also. Didn't realize it was hosting the championships again this year. Will be interesting to see what/if she does one. I hope she isn't injured!

It's an off year. Jorgensen doesn't need to beat herself up this fall racing a full Marathon. A straight(er) shot from downtown Mpls. to St. Paul. Twin Cites 10 mile.

It's not an off year for Jorgensen, who needs to get some elite level marathon experience under her belt before the trials.
I hope she runs Chicago. If so, there will be great interest as to who has the better social media presence Alexi or Gwen for the Chi 'thon. Secondarily, it would be a good prediction contest on LRC as to who can run faster. Add that Alexi and Jordan Hasay are friends lends extra intrigue.
M.A.G.A...
She's raced the 10 miler there before...it'd be demoralizing to race it again and get a slower time. So nope, she's not gonna do it.

Don't forget Philadelphia!
I don't think at all that she is injured. Judging from her social media, she started her 12 week build up around the beginning of August around Beach 2 Beacon. That puts her right around the time of NYC at the end of October/beginning of November. My guess is that she's running a lower level international marathon like Frankfort or Amsterdam, which are both around that time. I think it makes a lot of sense because Berlin and Chicago will be too fast and too early, and she probably wants to go more of a fast/time trial course instead of NYC. Frankfort or Amsterdam will probably be won in around 2:23-2:25 vs 2:18 at Chicago or Berlin.
West Wyoming Marathon!
