It's time to begin the official planning of... the BT RAWK Squad's Unofficial Triathlon (3rd Annual).

Check your calendar and vote for when you'd prefer it to be held.  Some notes:

  • The water will be damn cold in early May, but that hasn't stopped many of us before.
  • Starkermann falls the weekend of May 14th-15th
  • Zoo De Mack is May 21st-22nd
  • Island Lake Triathlon (Spring edition) is on Saturday, May 28th (which is why you do not see this date as an option)
  • Sunday, May 29th falls over Memorial Day weekend

Added American Triple-T to the May 20-22 weekend since there will be several MI Rawk Squad folks there.

Voted for the 17th, Sundays are much better for me as I'll be coaching baseball and Sunday is typically and off day.  Thinking of trying a small Battle of Waterloo simulation, with a swim (or swims) after running.  Or, maybe just a double sprint.

Kristen,

The earlier the better! I have a HIM on June 18th and need all the OWS I can before then! I voted for May 7th because that was the earliest date (May 8th is Mother's Day), but as of now, I am not booked for any weekend. Zoo-De-Mac is the weekend of May 21st. Anyone doing this ride? It looks like a great ride with lots of fun, but I have never done it.

Dan...there's a good chace Mike and I will do this ride. It sounds like a blast!  I will talk with him and let you know for sure.

Bardi...it's an unofficial,  semi spur-of-the-moment, quasi-organized triathlon.  It's held at Island Lake and generally, we'll all start the swim together, but you're on your own to decide how far you want to go (sprint, olympic, more).  No awards, no clocks.  Just do as much or as little as you want.

Really...it's just a big group training day.  Everyone brings some food and we have a big picnic on the beach after.  It's a nice way to kick off the season and see everyone again after the long winter.

On May 15th I'm doing the Knoxville HalfRev so not sure if I'll be able to do much.  If you all decide to do it later in May I'll definitely be out there to help out with grilling the hot dogs!

I have surgery on my foot tomorrow and will be off for 4 weeks or more so I vote for one of the later dates.  I missed last year and would love to come back out this year.

So what's our verdict?  Looks like most want the 15th, but the 22nd was a close second.  Can we make the call so I know if I can plan something for either date?
