The Weekly Tri

THE WEEKLY TRI!!!!!!!!!!

Ladies and Gentlemen,

I come to you from the Tech library this morning with a warm heart full of warmth.  This team is really one of the greatest organizations I’ve ever been a part of and that was so apparent this weekend in Tuscaloosa.  I want to personally thank all of you that came down and made the trip such a success.  If you’re longing to go back and live in a little bubble of triathlon world, you’re not alone.  Let’s do this more often!

 

THE WEEK THAT WAS:

-USAT Collegiate Nationals (Tuscaloosa, AL): with 21 people racing in both events, we had our biggest team ever to go to Nationals.  It was hotter than Hades down there, but undeterred, we raced with all we had.  Several PR’s.  Mitch was top 100 in the male race.  Peter Craig was top 25 in the sprint race.  Nev liked the smell.  Kendyl peed on the run.  If you are one of the people who didn’t go, we sincerely hope you can come next year, this is really the epitome of races/road trips and I couldn’t be more proud of how it went.  If you’re looking for results, usatriathlon.org has them all, plus more.

 

THE WEEK TO COME:

-Get back to work!!!  The season just started and I want to go faster.

 

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

-CBS Sports Network will debut separate one-hour telecasts on Friday, April 29 with the women’s event airing at 10 p.m. ET, followed by the men’s event at 11 p.m. ET.  THIS WILL BE A SOCIAL EVENT.  OR ELSE.  But we need to find somewhere that has CBS Sport Network (this is not the regular CBS channel).  If you are one of those people that has expanded cable in your apartment or house….EMAIL ME ASAP.

-The Tower Tri:  This is a VERY EASY sprint race in Niles, IL (only 20 minutes away) at the YMCA there on 5/15.  Registration is unfortunately closed at this time though.  If you are doing this race, email me so we can organize who’s going.

-Memphis in May is coming up!  5/21-5/22.  Be on the lookout for emails from exec for that trip.  If you’re still thinking about it, email Rich or Mitch and they’ll convince you.  I have to stand in a wedding in S. Carolina that weekend, so I can’t come.

-The NUTri team is going to be doing a philanthropy event in partnership with World Bicycle Relief.  I’m still ironing out the details, but keep on the lookout for emails about that.

 

SHOUT OUT OF THE WEEK:

THE NUTRI NATIONALS TEAM.
