Subject: West metro training groups?
Hey, I'm new to this forum, and pretty new to triathlon as well. I'll be in the Minnetonka area for the summer and am wondering if there are any semi-local groups that get together to train.  Maybe some occasional ows's, group rides or whatever else is on the menu.
Fwiw, i am training for sprint and olympic distances and am an alright swimmer, solid cyclist and a relativly fast runner... overall i'm in the top 10% for sprints.

Rainbreaker -

We have a loose group who gets together a few times a summer to do OWS and some mock tris. The purpose is usually to bring a few beginners into the fold, but skill level ranges all the way up to the occasional Ironman.

Most workouts are someone on the south side of Lake Minnetonka, usually the Excelsior area. If you'd like, I can let you know when the next outing is. It is a very loosely formed group, so there is no regular time.
