Expert 1145 Ann Arbor, MI | Subject: RE: Let's make a triathlon. Quick, grab the paddles, this thread needs a pulse! Rick, is this close to what you were thinking? Just some thoughts to get the discussion going again: Time -- May 16 or 17. 8am. Location -- ILRA and Kensington Metropark Distance -- Olympic = 1 mile swim w/ 2-3 loops around the perimeter of the pond; 25 mile bike through ILRA and Kensington; 6.2 mile run on ILRA roads Transition area/Start/Finish -- grass/beach/parking lot at Spring Mill pond Needs: Transition area guards (grrr) to watch our stuff Course map for participants Goofy awards for fun Participants! Add, change, modify as you see fit.  |

Master 2356 Fenton, MI | Subject: RE: Let's make a triathlon. Is the date locked in? That is starkermann weekend. I know that there aren't a ton of people racing that, but I will. |

Veteran 194 Pinckney, MI | Subject: RE: Let's make a triathlon. I am quite intrigued, and it would be nice to see how destroyed I'd get, and maybe pick up some transition tips or whatnot. Would it be possible to include sprint-distance option legs in case our (my) training hasn't gotten us (me) to Oly distance comfort? Err... plus I'm coaching a soccer game on the morning of the 16th... how's Sunday looking? I know... I suck. |

Extreme Veteran 446 Mason | Subject: RE: Let's make a triathlon. I'm with Ethan...I'm trying to be ready for Sprints early summer and olympic at the end...I'd prefer a .25-.5 mile swim, 10-20 mile bike and no more than 5 or 6 mile run. |

Master 1920 Ann Arbor, MI | Subject: RE: Let's make a triathlon. Let's do it!! If we make loops of things, then we can have 2 distances, no problem. Matt- do you have other weekends available? It seemed like that was the 'most available' weekend from the previous input, but it would be sad if you couldn't make it. Is there a race Sunday as well? Edited by jazz82482 2009-04-15 12:32 PM |

Master 2356 Fenton, MI | Subject: RE: Let's make a triathlon. The weekend before or after is open. I forgot that this was hashed out months ago. If I can't make it, no biggie. Its not like I will have a lack of racing this summer. If your question about a race on Sunday was to me, yes. The starker-mann race is Fri night, Sat morning, Sat afternoon, and Sun morning. Four events in total. |

Member 47 Tecumseh Ontario | Subject: RE: Let's make a triathlon. hello there... I'm relatively new to BT (located over near Windsor Ontario) and just started checking out the Michigan threads. I'd definitely be up for the May dates. I'm doing the 100mile Tour de Cure mid-June and training for IM Moo (1st IM). I could use some nice OLY distance training in May. |

I need some Trans. tips and this may be the place to get them. Oh and the open water swim thing, yeah i should try that once or twice before the race. |

Champion 6627 Rochester Hills, Michigan Gold member | Subject: RE: Let's make a triathlon. OK, this is still on. I've gotta take two weeks out of the country, but when I get back...and I'll post...I'm going to Island Lake to measure/plan/be stupid. Maybe even swim. Then I shall post the plan. Anyone who wants to accompany on recon, stay tuned. It will be the weekend before, not looking at the calendar, but maybe the 10th, or maybe the 3rd? We'll see, depending if I feel like dragging my kidlets down to do recon. And as far as distance, I'll mark an Oly, a Sprint, and a Half. And the funny part is, it's not really a race. Do what you want. Training plan call for a 40 mile bike? Do that. Feel like doubling up the swim? Cool. It's not about winning or losing, it's about pushing yourself and racing, whatever your distance, or speed, early season. With good company. That's it. Casual. |

Any others I do beforehand are meant for my personal training. Was by no means a reflection on any other distances which I'm sure are all capable of kicking my a$$. |

| Regular 76 Lansdale, PA | Subject: RE: Let's make a triathlon. coop, i look forward to meeting you. My thought with the HIM distance as my first is I'm more suited to endurance than speed and to keep motivated through the winter i wanted a big goal so HIM it was. I' doing an IM in Sept. Good luck with your training. I'll look into ann arbor also. |
