Hey guys and gals,
FYI:
Just found this new meetup group on Yahoo, Western Broward Weekend Warrior Triathlon and Duathlon Group - http://triathlon.meetup.com/143/. The organizer of the group lives in Weston, but he plans on doing rides/runs/swims all over Broward & even southern Palm Beach County.
Here’s a description of the group I pulled off their website:
“It’s not about how fast or strong you are, it’s simply that you compete!
This is a training and learning group for first timers, as well as those already enjoying the weekend-warrior multisport lifestyle. Use this Meetup to find training partners, ask for and share training and racing tips and techniques for multisport events. No snobbery here!
Our definition of a Weekend Warrior Triathlete / Duathlete: An individual who enjoys training and competing but also maintains other responsiblities of work, family, etc. While multisport training and competing is not this athlete’s sole focus in life, it is an important element in their overall lifestyle.”
The assistant organizer, my friend Karina, is also the organizer for the Road Cyclist’s of South Florida meetup group - http://www.a1aride.com.
I’m interested in doing duathlons: run-bike-run. So I just joined the group so I can get tips/hints for duathlon training along with participating in some of their run-bike trainings. Too cool!
Later gator,
Lynn AKA the Bike Diva
