Subject: RE: Training in Southern Maryland? Hi Greg, welcome! I joined the DC Tri Club with every intention of joining some of their training sessions, but I still haven't found the time this summer. I did my first sprint a few weeks ago (Iron Girl, Columbia), and I am also signed up for the Smallwood Sprint. I've just been training on my own, following a training plan from BT. Here is the website for the Oxon Hill bike club - http://ohbike.org/. They have rides that sometimes start or go through to Calvert, but again, I haven't found the time to join a ride. Some of the rides start on weeknight evenings which I just can't make. I commute to DC for work, so my schedule and my kids' activities often interfere with training. Another BTer I met is also doing Smallwood, and we were going to arrange to do the ride on one of the weekends before the race. Would you be interested in joining us? Laurie |
