FNR-Reminders-Headsweats-Results

Attention:

This weeks FNR (Friday night ride) will be starting at 5:30 and there will be no cook out afterwards. We will ride the hour and then all go our separate ways. Jenny and I have to go to our son's girlfriends graduation party right after. Anyone wanting to move the ride to their house to have the cook out afterwards please let me know and we can inform the group.

Reminders:

Aquathon Thursday 7PM Warner Park Beach Madison

Pie Ride Saturday (weather is supposed to be super sweet). There is a group leaving at 6:30 with the intentions of getting done sooner than later. The ride itself starts at 8.

Goober McChicken 50 mile ride Sunday 7:30 AM. Mike and Jenny Wimmer's house. Hopefully the wind, or lack of wind, will allow us to ride to Whitewater and back. Otherwise it will either be Beckman Mill or Albion, or Evansville..depending on the wind. No wind or light winds we will ride to Whitewater.


Tri outs have started Tuesdays. Last night was awesome. Rockport pool is even warmer than I would have thought so by next Tuesday, no wetsuits will be needed. 5PM swim, 6PM bike and 7:30 run for anyone who might not be able to make the 5PM start. Come anyway. It was buggy on the bike so make sure to wear good eye wear.

Lap swim is now at Rockport from 11:30-12:30 and 5-6PM daily. 1.50 each time or you can buy a season pass. Morning lap swim is still going on at Marshall from 6-7:15 for 2 bucks.

Headsweats Hats and Visors- I have been given the o.k. to set this up so I found out what it would take to get headsweats brand hats and visors with the SWAT logo embroidered on them and here is what I know.

We need 25 minimum. Any combination of hats/visors.

You can order any color hat or visor you want but the embroidery will be ORANGE. So please remember this when ordering. If your color hat/visor won't look good with orange letters than you should make a different choice. White always seems to be the best choice because for one it doesn't show the sweat salt as easy, and for two it doesn't attract the sun as much as a colored one does.

20 bucks each and they need to be PREPAID for. Once I get enough money to order them, I will.

You can go to http://www.headsweats.com/ and look at the supervisor or the race hat. Those are the two items I had quoted.

Anyone who has ever used a headsweats product knows how great they are for keeping sweat from running into your eye and for keeping the sun off your face.

Last weekend we had some SWAT members participating in some events.

Mike and Jenny Wimmer did the Capitol View Olympic Distance Tri and Tom Peterson did the Sprint at the same event. Tough run, semi tough bike but really fun.
Results can be found at http://www.capitolviewtriathlon.com/

Phil Gredler and CJ Hartman did an Olympic Distance Tri in Minnesota. Maybe CJ can fill the group in on how that went. I know they both did great.

Anyone else who may have completed an event please let us know how you did and how the course was. Makes it nice for following years plans.


Hope everyone is getting into full swing as the tri season is underway. Be sure to check this blog often as it gets updated regularly. You can join the RSS feed and it will e mail you every time the blog gets updated. Remember to check the calendar often as well.

Any questions, comments or problems you can e mail me or any of the other members by just clicking their names on the side bar.
