Club Update: Sprint – Club Strategy Meeting


Mini Tri 3 sign-up

Update: Weather – Sunny and Mid 80’s

HellornEveryone – This is a crazy time of year for many of us. The last fewrnraces are coming up including our Club Sprint triathlon, Pumpkinman,rnSilverman and the Florida Ironman among others. Then there are thingsrnlike the RTC Viva Vegas Ride and the Ultra Marathon Relay Ragnar thisrnweekend.

Gone are the days when you didn’t have to make choices.

Irnwant to talk a little about the Club Sprint on Oct 11th– you have therndetails on our other post. I am not sure what the weather will be likernnext weekend fall is very unpredictable as you know. We will be doingrnour best no matter what the conditions and if necessary we will makernaccommodation for the conditions as they evolve on race day. So if yournget up and it is blowing don’t just pull the sheets back over yourrnhead- come on down – we will make it work. I cannot find a web siternthat monitors the water temp but typically it is 70 degrees and thisrnSeptember has been warmer than normal which means that wet suits arernnot required.

For those of you who are concerned about the kidsrn– the race is only 100 yards along the shore –the water is waist highrnon the kids – they can stand up at any time. They should not get toorncold they will only be in the water for a few minutes – just dry themrnoff in transition if they are cold. Parents can do the race with thernkids or cheer them on, you can ride the bike course and pace them onrnthe run. It is all about fun and participating as a family.

Thernfollowing week is Pumpkinman. We will be at the expo so if you need arnclub uniform stop by and see if we still have your size. We will have arnclub hospitality tent at the finish so look for that. I plan on workingrnfor USAT as a course marshal – giving back a little for the good of thernsport.

Sunday the 18 we are going to have a club board strategyrnmeeting where we will be talking about the 2010 season and the clubsrndirection, so send me your concerns and comments
