CyborgQueen - 2009-12-14 10:32 AM Got room for ONE more?!

I'm brand new to the triathlon world.  If you have room for one more, I will post my info!!

Ha Ha - I'm sure FattyFatFat (another SWBKRUN groupss) is laughing about that one.  Maybe my husband could qualify as blowing by someone on a beautiful tri bike.  He has a very pretty bike, blue color (thanks to me).  Myself - well I'm working on getting to blow by status.  We hired a local coach this month and that's one of his tasks!

I hope we meet up sometime in the area.  We are doing Columbia in May.  Haven't figured out the fall.  Neither one of us will get into the Potomac for the Nations tri!

workerbee - 2009-12-14 2:04 PM Thanks for the add. This is going to be some great cold and rainy weather encouragement. Quick question for the mod or the other members... Do you have to (should you) utilize the online training logs? I have not yet attempted to battle any uploading, so I am pretty apprehensive at this point. If needed, I am sure I can get it figured out, maybe on my next off day.

YES!  please do.  not only will is it a great tool to track what you are doing but for us to refer to when you have questions about your training.

also make sure to ask questions about how things work on BT such as your logs.  please don't be apprehensive.  attack it!

you owe me a beer tony

I realized that I neglected to include my goals/races for 2010:  Florida HIM; Philly Sprint and Oly; Nation's Tri; Florida IM.


sdalessio:  I live in Chevy Chase, MD.  (Town of Chevy Chase - near the center of Bethedsa.)  I assume that you must be one of those guys who blows by me on a beautiful tri bike (really more of a blur) on MacArthur Blvd along the Potomac.  Maybe a training ride or run when the weather gets nicer would be in order.

badgerintx - 2009-12-14 10:49 AM NAME: badgerintx/ Dave Dineen (Univ of WI grad that spent many years in West Texas) STORY: I currently reside in a suburb of Milwaukee, WI. Stumbled into Tri's about a year ago looking for something to do after hanging up my Hockey Skates after many stitches and injuries. Being an Ex-Division 1 hockey player, I have always been a biker due to its anaerobic qualities and always have liked to run during the off season. Having 2 competitive swimming daughters introduced me to swimming and off I went to my first sprint. I haven't left yet and don't have any plans. WHATS NEXT: Changing of the goal from completing races to competing in my AG. Working on a bigger base and better aerobic VO2. As my profile states: Sprint / Olympic / 5 K's / 10 K's - having 2 teenage girls in high school doesn't allow the time for anymore distance. Plus this old "Hockey Player" body wasn't build for distance...but we are working on changing that! Joined a team this year in the Milwaukee / Madison area called "Turbo Donkey Racing" with the motto we are "Slow, Steady, and Stubborn." This group has been a great wealth of knowledge. FAMILY STATUS: Married (Shelly) 18 years in March, 2 teenage daughters (14, Tori and 16, Allie), and a ragdoll cat of 17 years (Rockie). Libby is my canine "running partner" but she is the neighbors dog that just needs regular workout since her owner died last year. CURRENT TRAINING: Working on VO2 capacity in the off season. Have also been really focused on swim form and times since my last race and working on installing a 2 beat kick with my swim. Been using spin classes for biking since I don't own a trainer and running more. 2010 RACES: Tentative schedule is on also my dashboard for my training log. March 3rd- Iron Clinic (WAC) ?June 13- Capital View Oly (Madison)August 1- Ripon Medical Oly (Green Lake) (Primary Race A)September 11- Lake Geneva Oly (Lake Geneva)September 12- Ironman MOO- VolunteerSeptember 26- Devils Lake Sprint (Baraboo) ?October ???- Northface Endurance Challenge- 1/2 Mary or 10K (Dousman) (Primary Race B) WEIGHT LOSS: This has never been an issue for me (Lucky) and I am pretty regimented about what I eat. I do enjoy a couple of beers every now and then with friends, but I am Wisconsin Grad....I don't think they let you get the diploma without that skill. WHAT WILL MAKE ME A GOOD GROUP MEMBER: I am all about training and the journey. Races are just to measure how the training has gone and to give me some feedback on whether or not what I am working on has worked. I am pretty knowledgeable and willing to share my experiences with the group if it helps others.


Sorry... I have tried everything to put some white space in this paragraph from hell with no success.
