288 LAKE

They informed us on Saturday (6/13), that they will now be open on Friday evenings from 3:30 - 8:30 for swim practice. Another option instead of meeting Saturday or Sunday mornings.

Yes, you love OWS... you need to embrace the addiction! It's like a 12 step program!

Sacrifiice a little time in traffic to feed that burning addiction! Besides, you gotta a shiny new bike, you could at least let EvD get a little extra sleep on a Saturday morning.... since you denied hime that P4 he was eyeing!

Gee thanks guys! I'm totally outnumbered by testosterone here!

Oh yes poor Eric who has the lowly P2 SL...he's so deprived. Besides he goes faster on his P2 SL than those guys on the P4! Who am I to deny him the joy of passing those guys up!

Anybody heading down Friday? My next tri is a pool swim at the Pearland Y, it's 50 meters and I've never been in a 50 meter pool so I thought I'd head down Friday to check it out and then maybe head to the lake after.

I'd love to squeeze in one more lake swim, but I am working a second job Friday evening. Good luck with the swim practice. A 50m pool is just like a 25m pool....only longer!

Thanks John, somebody already did and now I'm skeered!!!

ETA: This is only a couple weeks after my cruise to The Bahamas with 25 girlfriends with LOTS of drinking and dancing and sunning and drinking. Not much time for recovery before the race.

I know, I know, HTFU! When I decided to do this race I thought it was 300m. But I guess it's a natural progression right? My first was 200 yards, next one is 300m, and Bridgeland is 500m.
And here I thought Summertime Blues Tri which was on my maybe list because of the 500 YARD swim. I *could* still chicken out and do the TriGirl 8/16 instead since the swim is only 300 yards but you guys would probably never let me live that down.
ETA: After today the shirtless part isn't the issue

Keri - I could meet you out there on some Friday afternoons. Although this Friday is out, because the kiddo has her 1st dance recital. Maybe next week?

Next Friday will be the Fri before our races. Works for me if it works for you, I planned on swimming that day anyway. You are registered for Sugarland right? I went with Pearland (smaller field). We'll have to compare notes afterwards. Are you doing TriGirl or Bridgeland in August?

Next Friday works for me. I am doing Sugarland...I registered and then learned that Pearland was the same day. Doh! I would probably gone with the smaller field too!

I am going to stick with TriGirl for August. I made a pact with some folks from my running group that we'd all do that one together. I think that might be my last one of the season, although I have heard great things about Try Andy's Tri....

Cool, we'll plan on it then

I was shying away from Bridgeland but then today I swam 550 without stopping pretty easily so I really don't have an excuse anymore.

Yes, Tri Andy's Tri - I'm doing that one so you definitely should.

Did you see the adventure race I posted about here in the Texas section??? I think Ken and I are going to do it together in October and I am kinda sorta contemplating the Houston 1/2.
