Dexter-Ann Arbor run?

Hi - anybody doing the dexter-ann arbor run? It's Sunday May 31. I've signed up for the 5K. They have 10K and 1/2 marathon. I'm a little nervous about running in an actual race, and I hope to see some of you tri girls there! http://www.dexterannarborrun.com/

Ride on Saturday Morning

Hello Everyone,

So it is Midnight on friday - we are supposed to meet at 8:30 am for a ride - the weather is predicting, not only rain but thunder. I will post something at 8am and send an email -but I think there is a good chance we will have to do it next week. Riding in thunderstorms is not my idea of a good way to be on your bike. :)

stay tuned

thanks,
Amy

2 helpful running websites

Hi - since I spend a lot more time sitting in front of a computer than I do running, I have lots of time to THINK about running! Here are two websites I've used for plotting distances and calculting pace:

http://www.coolrunning.com/engine/4/4_1/96.shtml
Hope everyone's doing great. I'll miss you on the bike ride, but I'll be there for another one!

What to Wear?

I think I asked this at our first dinner back in February. I still can't get my head around what one wears. The thought of biking or running in a swim suit sounds yucky, not to mention chaffing-causing. But I don't want the drag of swimming in running shorts and a tank. And I am not spending $100+ on a tri suit, especially when they're not easy-off for the multiple trips to the bathroom I invariably take before a race.

What are you all planning to wear? Tri veterans, what do you suggest?

time to get out and ride

Hello Ladies -

so let's get out on the bike on Saturday morning. It looks like saturday morning is the best day - and its split down the middle between 8 and 9am - so perhaps we can meet at 8:30. Let me know if you have constrictions and need to meet at 8am (ie - you have a soccer game at 9am)

I think we should meet at Barton Park on Huron River Drive. I will post directions -

but for now - save the date and the time! Also bring your running shoes.

Let me know if you can make it!

Be well!
