Weekend racers!

[labbie]

Sorry if I missed it if it was already posted, but thought I'd start it off...

Me! Me! I'm doing the Irongirl Sprint tri on Sunday.
I'm sort of excited, sort of terrified. I haven't done a tri in 10 years, I'm pretty undertrained for the swim and the bike, and I have to sleep at the inlaws the night before.

Let's just say the post race beer will be well earned in many ways.

Good luck everyone!

Good luck to everyone racing!!

I'm running a 10k on Sunday. Its supposed to be only 62* at the start, but 80% humidity. I'm so excited for 62* I could jump for joy.

I don't know. There's benefit run for the local children's hospital tomorrow morning, I'm supposed to do 3 miles with my training group but I'm considering doing the benefit instead. My wife has a softball tournament all weekend and I think her first game is at 10, though, so I'm not sure if it will work out logistically (group starts at 7am vs. 8:30am start for the 5k). I need to talk to her about it tonight and see.

I have a local sprint tri on Sunday morning. Might be just the thing to get in more experience racing in the rain

[Susie]

I'm doing an Oly tri tomorrow morning.  In theory.

Will do!  And for the record, anyone should feel free to post any screen grabs or whatever.  Unless, of course, they're of me picking a massive wedgie or something.

Looking forward to coming back and reading fun stuff!  That's always fun to think about on the course.  (Yes, I actually do think about you all following along when I'm out there.  It's very motivating.)

No, but we do have trails to ales, where you get free shipyard after 10k!

[melmel48]

I am not racing this weekend, but I am volunteering for a race! I believe I am going to be a course monitor. They asked me if I had bright clothing so I can be easily seen. I can't wait to wear my bright yellow construction vest!

Good Luck everyone!

Extra motivation to run fast at my 10k. I'll probably miss most of your swim but will be able to login for the bike and run at least.

My sister won a pound of bacon last weekend at a trail race in Vermont. Best prize ever!

I might look into this 10k it would probably fit with my schedule. Are you doing that 10k?

Now that sounds like a race I can get behind.

Best of luck, racers! I can't wait to track Regina!

Yup.  I try to do it every year.  I am disappointed that they aren't doing the afternoon sprint/double anymore, but oh well.  I'm only 2 weeks out from Timberman, probably best that I'm not doing the double this year!

Probably. It was a great run last year.

Good luck racers!!

Tomorrow I am doing a bike ride, I don't think that it is timed though. 25 miles, which will be my longest ride to date. It is a "bike fresh, bike local" ride in support of local agriculture and afterwards we get lunch and beer!
