I just finished my first official year of racing. I did the Rockwall Sprint and the LAC Sprint as a part of my "Turning-40-Mid-life-Crisis-Thing" last summer. I enjoyed it so much that I did 6 Sprints this year. Of course like many, the Texas Man was to be my maiden voyage into the Oly dist. But, it is still my longest race to date. I did the Rockwall and LAC Sprints this summer and improved my 9 min in each one. Now I am really hooked!

I want to continue improving and I am interested in the local tri-clubs. It seems that the group workouts and available coaching would be a good thing for me. Does anyone have any feedback and/or recommendations on the different clubs?

I must also say that the Triathlete group is 2nd to none in the Good People catagory. Everyone that I have met at the races and through BT has been very nice and helpful. If I could make a living limiting my Optometric Practice to Triathletes, I would do it in a second.

Not too sure of the Dallas side. I have ridden with some from one group, but for the life of me I can't remember which one. Go to USAT's web site. The clubs should be listed there.

I know of the different clubs in town. I was wondering if anyone had any experience, comments, or recommendations concerning them.

Playtri has a new club, with most everything based in Dallas, except for the swims, which are at Lake Grapevine. Ahmed and crew are well known and respected in the triathlon world. Hard to go wrong with them
www.playtri.com

But of course, I'm coached by him, so I'm a little partial
