 28 |  Subject: Training GroupsHi Everyone! It's been years since I have competed/trained for triathlon (AZ Ironman 2010). I have slowly been getting back into shape and competing in half marathons and now back on my bike and in the pool. I know in 2010 there was a great community of us that would train together. Especially for bike rides on the weekends. Are there any good groups or meet-ups that you know of for cycling or even running? It is always nice to train with others  Thanks in Advance! -Melanie |

I've gone down 15th to Grand to Central to south mountain (not actually into the park) It's a pretty decent ride |

I have gone south, but typically go north a few miles and hang a right at Butler Park (past northern ave) and then make my way to the Arizona Canal at central ave. From there, you can either stick to the canals for a flat ride (with underpasses under most street so no stopping) or head up through the Dreamy Draw Park for a little hills. Longer rides stretch into Paradise Valley from there (up and around camelback and mummy mountain). |

I forgot about the canal that would be a good stretch and I like the idea of not having to worry about traffic. |
