BEST WISHES FOR A SAFE AND SUCCESSFUL FINISH!... ... to all Gators with an event this weekend! In this final weekend of summer we welcome a new event to the calendar with the Steelman Racing "Off Road Endurance Festival"! You will also have your first opportunity to participate in our newly added Sunday late morning SVY indoor lap pool swim! And Patty Trainer and Sean Cozart have put together a Saturday morning bike ride (with pastries, of course!)! So lots of options to keep you busy in between football games and frustrating Phillies losses! Saturday, September 19: "Bundle Up Buttercup!" group ride (Collegeville, 10:00am; editor's note: I added the Buttercup part, but I think it's appropriate considering the pastry shop rest stop): Join Patty and Sean for what's described as a "miserably cold but enjoyable 30ish mile ride" that will begin at Patty's Pad. See "Event" for additional details... https://www.facebook.com/events/685472668722963 Sunday, September 20: Steelman Racing's "Off Road Endurance Festival" (Bear Creek Resort, Macungie, PA; 7:00am run start; 9:00am Tri/Du/AquaBike start): Brian Kozera and Chris Townsley will be participating in the triathlon (1/2 mi swim, 8 mi mountain bike, 5k run), club sponsor Don Morrison is doing the duathlon, and Don Mack is in for the 10K trail run! Uncoached Group Swim (11:15am-12:15pm; Spring Valley Y indoor lap pool): This is the kickoff to our Sunday late morning swim series! You can sleep in and still be home in time for kickoff... and we have the entire pool and can accommodate up to 24 swimmers! What else could we ask for (other than your participation)?!? Have a great weekend!
