| Regular 95 North Haven | Subject: RE: Signed up for first 70.3 anyone else doing Eagleman 2010 PennState - 2009-07-20 1:39 PM It's a great race. It is fast and flat, but yes wind plays a role. It draws a very competetive field as well. Remember Pat Tillman is associated with this race as well.
To the OP: good luck, I'll see you there FRed you hit the nail right on the head....I am paralyzed from the upper chest down and 14 inch rods in my back. I was hurt 10 years ago on active duty....so swim with a little flotation help and work my but off...... |

| Master 3546 Millersville, MD | Subject: RE: Signed up for first 70.3 anyone else doing Eagleman 2010 I too am doing black bear as IMLP prep instead of Eagleman. I think the timing of black bear is better (Eagleman doesn't give much time between the two races). It's also a much better LP prep from the terrain perspective -- if you're ready for Black Bear, than LP hills won't seem so bad. Oh and don't forget its much cheaper and much more scenic. |

I am currently putting together a training plan but thinking I may need professional assistants, can anyone recommend a qualified and experienced triathlon trainer in Harford County, MD? Thanks!! Coaching is a great way to go about tackling a new adventure! It gives you guidance and insight to workouts and races. Now what you have to ask yourself is do you want a local coach that will do more hands on training or group things or are you pretty self motivated to where you can do distance coaching through Training Peaks. Feel free to PM myself or any other coach on BT (there are plenty) to ask questions and find a coach that suits your attitude and style. Shanks |

| Coach 10487 Boston, MA | Subject: RE: Signed up for first 70.3 anyone else doing Eagleman 2010 Shanks - 2009-07-20 3:18 PM I want to Eman because of the timing and because I've always heard good things about the race.

| Master 1572 PA | Subject: RE: Signed up for first 70.3 anyone else doing Eagleman 2010 I would love to do Eman 2010. I was registered this year, but ditched it to go up to LP to do Jorge's camp. Which was absolutely the right decision for me this year. Next year Eman is a good possibility! |

| Veteran 301 Smithfield, VA | Subject: RE: Signed up for first 70.3 anyone else doing Eagleman 2010 Eagleman is my dream race. I desperately want to do it 2010, but may end up waiting for 2011. |

| Expert 1046 Fountain Hills, AZ | Subject: RE: Signed up for first 70.3 anyone else doing Eagleman 2010 1/2EmDot...Heck yeah, I'm there. This is my second season of training and racing... my goal this year is three hour Olympic... missed it at Columbia by six minutes so going again at Nation's. Next year's goal is Eagleman. BTW responding to a post up there, a good coach in Frederick, Maryland is Herb Spicer. He has a training studio, and has the reputation of being a great communicator. He's also a great racer. |
