Triathlon Find Site and Summer Training

I'll be here and training as much as possible with our 2nd daughter coming around June 1st. I am planning on the Mountain Man oly as well, and at least one other race.

whoa now fellas. mtn man tri aint no joke. jk. lets all slap that biatch up. it was my first oly. tons of homies crashed at my parents casa. im sure they wud be down for that again.

there's the firecracker tri on July 6th at the U and i'm definitely training over the summer! i think i'll also do the san diego international tri June 29th

I'll be here. Ima do Mountain Man and I would like to do Deuces Wild too. Let's definitely get some early morning training action going this summer.

I'll be in San Diego for most of the summer....so if anyone wants to come train with me I would love the company;)

Another good source for races: http://www.trifind.com/az.html

You can put in other locations and find good races all over with this site.

Oh, and I'll be here all summer... I'll come up with a way to get sound training plans out there for you guys in the summer. More to come on that.

Adrienne,

I'm also really interested in masters swimming.

Here's the link I found for it:

I will be here for the summer. As far as races I want to run the san diego marathon in june, the half ironman in flagstaff and pumpkinman olympic in october.

Cool Matt! (Maybe I'll finally conquer the flip turn)

I will be here this summer. I am interested in trying out masters swimming.

Im here all summer, training for a marathon mostly..but would probably be interested in joining to swim as well.. that would be pretty sweet!

For swimming, I just want to do whatever is going to help me the most for triathlon...not really looking to impress anyone doing butterfly at the rec next fall :). I'm sure this is the case for many other people also.

Is there a good alternative to masters swimming, or would this be a worthwhile addition to a weekly program (thinking several of these workouts a week, and some others as well)? Cost is obviously an issue as well...

Since it appears that I didn't get the internship I wanted, I'll be here all summer. I want to basically live in the water for the summer and do some intense cycling.

I'm pretty sure that I'll have at least one room open in my house too for anyone that has a lease that ends in May and doesn't start again until August. We can keep each other motivated.

I also wanted to work in some strength training this summer, especially since the weight room is air conditioned and will not be filled with frat boys.

SO MANY OPTIONS. a work out plan would be amazing since i'm not so great of coming up with stuff to do while swimming. I definitely need to do some mad cycling.

Dug this thread back up because we were talking about it at the meeting...

In addition to my previous posts on the aquathlons and mountain man, I'm going to be hitting up as many local running races as possible, the next being a 10k this weekend (azroadrunners.org). It will probably be Rylie's first race also (running in the toddler division :). Other local running races can be found at everyoneruns.net, taggrun.com, and bluepantsracing.com.

Going to try to make the Tucson Parks and Rec track meets most Tuesdays over the summer as well. I'm going to be training with some cross country studs from my high school and hoping they wear off on me. Totally open for more people jumping in.

Also planning on the Sahuarita tri (tritucson.com).

I'll probably wait until June at least for masters swimming because of my work schedule.

Yes, I'm going to get faster or kill myself trying...

i just want to train a lot, and mostly on biking (but of course will be running and swimming). would be up for doing some of those track meets perhaps. i'll probably take adrienne's route and just hit up the pool with others.

Turns out I'll be in Phoenix for the summer. If anyone will be living up there or just up there to visit or mix up the training a bit, I've got Sat-Mon. off every week. So, call me up if you want to train together. 520-256-1996

I will be here all summer. I am staying in Tucson and not getting an internship (already done 3 years worth anyhow) for the purposes of training. After all, I only have one shot left at nationals.

I plan on swimming and riding my brains out this summer. I would love to be hitting 200+ miles on the bike (hopefully finding a job that will accomodate that) as well as swimming a minimum of 15k a week (already did some 4-5k workouts and it isn't that much more a time commitment than our 3k workouts since you are already there and all. The running will be what it will be but hopefully 20+ miles. All of this is just random numbers that I like the sound of until I hear a Grasky plan which I will most likely then follow.

I'm right there with you BK. I just kinda made up some very ambitious numbers, but will probably end up following a Grasky generated plan. Tentatively (13:30 bike, 10:30 swim (I'm horrible), 6:00 run).

Christina, we should definitely do some carpooling/rides from the valley down here to T-town. Anyone down for a UA-ASU campus to campus ride?

You know me...I'm there :)

I'll be in Tucson all summer (except maybe two weeks in August). I'm really interested in doing some intense swimming and biking. I am thinking about doing Ford master's if it works into my schedule
