I thought I would start a new thread so we could keep track separate from Stef's other questions about the Tomatoman.

So far it looks like Stef, David, Jeff, Tracey, and myself are all onboard! We'll ride the sprint course and afterwards those who would like can continue to ride the try-a-tri course, or there will also be a group (me, at the very least!) doing the sprint run. Come one, come all!

I need to swim that night too?  Maybe I might skip the trial run and just do a swim.

You know when your training for a race when, you have to agree to party, one night, weeks in advance

I know - I schedule my time with the girls around my workouts.  Fortunately they've been very patient with me and my "Don't you know I'm training for a 1/2 ironman" speeches for the past several months...

If it wasn't an organized event I'd totally reschedule - but it's one of those "planned-sell-something" parties.  They are never "Triathlon" parties though - and quite frankly - there isn't a budget for jewelery, candles or extra-curriculars since all my disposable income is spent on tri-gear or gardening.

Hey! New plan - triathlon parties!  Invite all your friends over and try on wetsuits, shorts, etc. *giggling*

I don't know Leamington very well, but I assumed there would be parking down near the harbour? I thought we could meet near where the transition area will be set up. Based on the maps, it looks like the ride and run both start on Erie Street, so there must be somewhere to park near there.

Or, if you prefer, we can park near the sports complex where the try-a-tri is being held, bike that course first, and then head out to do the sprint course? You pick and let me know!

Lots of parking.  You should be able to park right in what will be transition or the vacant lot across from the Seacliffe. Worse case park in the marina parking lot about a block away

Oh man, I hadn't planned on a swim! I thought we were just doing the bike/run courses. I can bring my swim stuff too though.

Swimming the course is probably not safe as there a fair amount of boat traffic in the harbour. If you go just the other side of the pier it should be a nice safe swim with a good sandy beach. We could act like real tri geeks and practice all 3 events if we have someone who can watch the bikes for us.

Tabbs would you be interested in moving your swim from Cedar Beach to Leamington?

I'd be willing to do the full course, would be good practise... really it should only take an hour and a half to 2 hours.
We could all make it back home in time to watch the rest of the game!

I am going to stick to Cedar Beach for 7pm. I did my bike and run already today.  Jim and the kids are going to come with me to watch to make sure I don't drown.  And, I promised I was going to get everyone home before the start of the Wings game!

Have a great trial run!  Just remember that the run course is x2 for the sprint.
