greazyjungle - 2009-07-09 1:25 AM Downtown...I WAS riding eastern parkway until it closed this week.  Then I found out my pool closes (Canadian Police College) indefinitely...

So I'm swimming at Mooneys Bay (across the swim area - 200+ meters each way...!); Meechers are too fast and too competitive for me.

Couple of Somersault sprints down so far this year - Olympic at the 'National Capital' and then Timberman in August...

I really need to get to the Gats a few more times.....!

M

Hey! I am doing Timberman too!!
Come to the Gats....its Nirvana.......

I'm in the west end near Ikea but can run/ride wherever. Did my first 2 tris last summer but none for me this season. I'm targeting an Olympic next year so having folks to train with would be great!

What masters swim programs to people participate in over the winter months?

Hi! Welcome to BT!

I joined Technosport this fall. We swim at Ottawa U. Fantastic coach....but silly expensive parking. Check out their website!

Thanx! T-man was a blast. Would highly recommend it!

Re masters...I think the most important thing to consider is proximity. No matter how good the group is if its too inconvenient to get there regularly there is not much point right??

Hi guys!

I am also from Ottawa--I live near Elgin and Waverley.  I also joined Technosport this year--I heard many good things about the club and am thoroughly enjoying it so far!

Hello Ottawa crew! I have an idea..........

Is anybody interested in a century before the snow flies? I mean the 160 km one, not the 100 km one. I would really like to do one before outdoor cycling season is over and think it would be fun to have a group.

What say you?

I am VERY flexible when it comes to when and where.......I just wanna ride.........

Great idea Helen - but for me I'm afraid I have the opposite problem you have - I am now able to run but still can't ride without aggravating the injury.  Great idea though and I hope you can get a few riders.  I still hope to get some riding in before ski season but it will just be short rides at this point.

Would love to join you but that's way too ambitious for me. I'll take a rain cheque for the spring though...
