Subject: Help, I'm infected! 2016: Sprint, Olympic, Half ?!?
Hi all, until last summer I hadn't done any sport competitively since high school cross-country -- and that only because the coach was also my math teacher and said he'd flunk me if I didn't join the team. That was 50 years ago...Last spring my daughter invited me to join her in a sprint in beautiful Door County, Wisconsin -- and I survived! Now I am paying off a new aluminum road bike (my steel "hybrid" Trek from 1995 is back looking as forlorn as it did for the 20 years before I used it to train last summer), and I'm shopping for an indoor trainer (fluid, I'm told)....Here's my schedule: Jan 19 started
master swim class at Santa Fe CC with "irongal" (check her out at irongal.com) Carol Davenport, a bicycle clinic Jan. 30 at Spindoc, and a rough 8 week training plan towards my first race of the new year:

March 19, Anthem Merrill Ranch Sprint (swim in a pool)

Then the ramp up for:

Monte Rio Olympic: May 22 (swim in the Russian River)
http://www.vineman.com/Rodney_Strong_Monte_Rio_Triathlon.htm

And if my body holds up, my daughter and I will do:

Door County Half Iron: July 17 (swim in Green Bay)
http://www.doorcountytriathlon.com

If I survive, then I'm at loose ends all fall. Anything in driving distance of Santa Fe in the fall?

No, I'M slower welcome to BT and this strange virus we call triathlon!

You may want to look into one of the open mentor groups--great for camaraderie, guidance, motivation etc. Links are at the top of this forum and the main Triathlon Talk forum.

More than half of the 7.5 million tickets will be evaluated at 70 Brazilian reals (US$30) or underneath, with least expensive passage at 40 Brazilian reals

There will be tickets for 717 games sessions, covering each of the 28 Olympic games, in addition to the opening and shutting services. The scope of costs is intended to make tickets as reasonable as could be allowed, with the objective of guaranteeing that the neighborhood populace has the chance to go to occasions. The least expensive ticket will be evaluated at 40 Brazilian reals (under US$20).

The declaration was made in an exceptional computerized presentation to the Brazilian and global media on Tuesday (16 September) evening. The full Rio 2016 Olympic Games Ticket Sales Program will be disclosed in November 2014, alongside the opposition calendar and subtle elements on how people in general can purchase tickets.
