Update: Weather - Sunny and Mid 80's
Hello Everyone – This is a crazy time of year for many of us. The last few races are coming up including our Club Sprint triathlon, Pumpkinman, Silverman and the Florida Ironman among others. Then there are things like the RTC Viva Vegas Ride and the Ultra Marathon Relay Ragnar this weekend.
Gone are the days when you didn’t have to make choices.
I want to talk a little about the Club Sprint on Oct 11th– you have the details on our other post. I am not sure what the weather will be like next weekend fall is very unpredictable as you know. We will be doing our best no matter what the conditions and if necessary we will make accommodation for the conditions as they evolve on race day. So if you get up and it is blowing don't just pull the sheets back over your head- come on down - we will make it work. I cannot find a web site that monitors the water temp but typically it is 70 degrees and this September has been warmer than normal which means that wet suits are not required.
For those of you who are concerned about the kids – the race is only 100 yards along the shore –the water is waist high on the kids - they can stand up at any time. They should not get too cold they will only be in the water for a few minutes – just dry them off in transition if they are cold. Parents can do the race with the kids or cheer them on, you can ride the bike course and pace them on the run. It is all about fun and participating as a family.
The following week is Pumpkinman. We will be at the expo so if you need a club uniform stop by and see if we still have your size. We will have a club hospitality tent at the finish so look for that. I plan on working for USAT as a course marshal – giving back a little for the good of the sport.
Sunday the 18 we are going to have a club board strategy meeting where we will be talking about the 2010 season and the clubs direction, so send me your concerns and comments
