I am moving back to arizona in three weeks after I complete steelhead 70.3 triathlon in michigan. I have been in Michigan for three years and this is my first year doing tri's. 

 Is there any training groups in the phoenix area. I will be living in chandler and will be training for tempe ironman 2009. any info would be appreciated.

 thanks.

Just kidding. Turns out there are a number of us down in Chandler, and the whole group here does all sorts of training.

Sunday group bike rides.
Thursday Open Water Swims (OWS) with runs. (or just eating if there is a hint of a storm )
Midweek bike rides in Chandler.
Sometimes Wednesday runs in Tempe of the IMAZ course.

You have a lot of options. Welcome back. Get used to training early in the morning, as you'll be doing a lot of it for IMAZ in '09.

 Where do you do the OWS? Whats the deal...no bike/run bricks?  Must be because you aren't a devil. ha. I look forward to training with your group.

We do our OWS at Saguaro at Butcher Jones Cover (BJC).

We do bike run bricks occasionally, but they're the exception not the norm. Smart people try to avoid injury.

Seriously, if people want to do bricks with me after our bike when we have them scheduled my house is very close to where we meet. We can drop off bikes and head out for a run. Be warned that because I'm doing HR zones for running that my runs are SLOW. If I weren't doing HR zones
then the runs would just be slow.
