Subject: Oxford County Area Triathletes?
Hi All!

I'm new to Beginner Triathlete and have been doing triathlons on and off for a couple of years while being dedicated to running. Hoping to make triathlon more of a focus next season and was wondering if there are any triathletes from around Woodstock/Ingersoll on the forum? I'd love to connect with you if you're on here!

See you at Lakeside!?

oooh oooh!  Pick me!!!  I'm in woodstock.  I know a bunch of other triathletes in Town.  Lisa Hartmann does a swim training group at Southside in Woodstock during the school year, you should come check it out.  I'm a good swimmer, and have got better with her help (last year I was top 20% female, top 1/3 over all and this summer I'm generally top 10% female, 20% over all (with the exception of last weekend in cobourg).  

(Lisa won her age group for the 1500 metres at the canadian masters swimming championship in a blazing time of 21 minutes - She's fast!!!)

Oh, and I'm also planning on doing lakeside - the sprint - signed up last week.

Hey Daffodil...great to hear there are a lot of triathletes in Woodstock! I know some runners but not very many triathletes! I swim out of the Y...is Lisa's (wow, she is FAST!) group the Southwestern Aquatics masters' group? I was planning on joining that this fall...I definitely need to improve my technique!

I wonder with all the swimmers, runners and cyclists around, we don't have a tri club? Good luck at Lakeside; I'm doing the OLY on the Sunday!

I will probably volunteer at the Oly on Sunday.

Lisa's group is just a group of triathletes.  Her significant other used to run a triathlon training group out of goodlife, so it is a group of people almagamated over the years.  I would recommend checking it out before going to the masters group.  The masters group will focus on all different strokes, is expensive and a big time commitment (I think it is 5 days a week?)

ARe you on Facebook?  I would search "Lisa Hartmann" and send her a message that way.  Say that you were talking to Laura Jones

There are a lot of great age group athletes in the area. Lisa is definitely someone you could talk with. If you would like to volunteer at Lakeside we can always use as many volunteers as possible. Please email Jan at [email protected]. Please say hi at Lakeside.

Thank you for responding, John. This is why I love Multisport Canada! I'm going to volunteer on Saturday and do the OLY on Sunday.
