Hi everyone. Nice to hear from you again Amy and glad to hear you're going to be getting back into training.

I was off visiting grandchildren last week - actually my wife and I were helping to take care of them to give DIL a little time to get out to see friends, etc. I was able to get in a couple runs and a walk while I was there, but no swimming or cycling. I did have a very nice two weeks of training before that - probably two of the best weeks this year.

I am thinking of doing 2 or 3 Olys next year and an HIM. Of course, my body may decide otherwise, but I'm going to take it slow and steady through the winter and try to build up my endurance in all three disciplines.

No race this weekend for me .  Have signed up for a spin class on Saturday and then off with the girls for brunch on Sunday.  Will try to fit in a run sometime this weekend. 

Enjoy the rest of the week everyone and train safe.

That's great!   I was thinking this morning that I need to start setting some goals for 2010.  Thinking of doing a Sprint in late April and an Olympic in early May.  I would love to do a Half next year, but I have lost so many months of training I don't know if I would be ready by June. 

What other races do you have planned for 2010?

MDHillSlug - 2009-11-10 7:51 PM I've actually already signed up for a tri that isn't until August! I decided that I wanted to do Iron Girl solo next year. Registration opened on Tuesday Nov3 at 9am and closed out in under 36 hours! Crazy!

I am soooooooo geared up to do a half IM after watching this IM in Cozumel....I say we find one that is central to us all - that has a nice venue and a good reputation!?? how fun would that be to have a large group doing it together! any takers?????

I have no plans as of yet..besides doing a sprint in SanDiego that I have raced previously with my daughter and the moraga treeline tri that I do in my area...other then that! no plans! so whatcha say, any of you ready to step it up and sign up for HIM!???

Everything else is tentative at this point but I'm thinking of only doing swim/bike events before Iron Girl:

May: Rocketts Landing Oly-distance swim/bike
June: Tour de Cure metric century, maybe a relay (swimmer) for a new tri that uses the Iron Girl routes
July: Colonial Beach Oly-distance swim/bike
August: Iron Girl
September:Sandman sprint tri (the perfect combination of tri and beach vacation)

I'm really taking a step backward with my running, trying to put as little pressure on it as possible. Besides, this lets me concentrate on my two favorite tri events

wow you go soon to be IRONGIRL! glad you are doing ok and signing up for these! I need to do that too....instead of talk about it!

amy mutz - 2009-11-12 8:33 AM Hello Group- remember me!? Well this is the first week since August that I have felt relief from work so I thought I would check in. I have re-evaluated some things and have set some training/race goals so I will be logging my training again, that way I will get on here and check in with everyone. Is everyone just continuing with this group through next year, or are you going to join a new one? Julie- I have missed you very much...since we have been grouped together the past two years it is hard not to become attached. I hope your new job is exciting, and I can relate to getting things under control there before you can concentrate on training...that is why I haven't really trained for 2.5 months. So take your time get acclamated and then return with a new perspective. Cheri- It looks like you got a new job also!? How is that for you. I'm still debating on doing the gulf coast HIM this spring!? Have to wait and see how my new store goes. I'm moving into a small store front location in town and moving the business from my home base operation. I'M VERY EXCITED!!!! New local is open January 2010. Lisa - What is on your plate right now!? I know you said you liked the cooler weather...do you have any races soon?? I might be driving to Dallas in two weeks, I know it's not close, but is in the same state....ha I miss everyone and watching your progress, but hope to become a regular again!!! Take Care...Always keep tri-ing!!! Love from Indiana, Amy

you are always in my thoughts girl!I miss you like a sister! and you should see the smile that I had when I saw your message! I would love to keep this group going...but that is all your call! hugs to all of you....and HAVE A VERY VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS & A HAPPY NEW YEAR!! PLEASE KEEP IN TOUCH!!!!

The very first tri I ever signed up for was IronGirl 2007 but I ended up doing a pool swim tri before it because I was afraid of the OWS. So, I finished IronGirl in 2007 and then I just did it again as a relay this summer (I was the swimmer).

There's a new local coed sprint tri that is using the IronGirl routes and swim and we're putting the relay team back together for it. We're all looking to improve on this year's results.

Hi Nicole. Nice to see an entry in here although it looks like they've chopped off a page or two of entries. I'll have to pass on being a co-mentor. I think I need at least another couple years of experience. You, on the other hand, are certainly capable of doing a great job as a mentor.p.s. love the new wheels and the hat.

Hey, Nicole.  I've actually signed up to be in another mentor group.  You'd make a great mentor, so I think you ought to go ahead and go for it.  All of the groups have filled up and they are looking for additional mentors. I would definitely drop in and check on your group! Smile  I know you'd do a great job!

I went ahead and joined the Artemis mentor group.

I know I'd be good with mentoring the technical aspects of triathlon, but I'm a bit lacking on the cheerleader gene; I think a good mentor needs both.
