*Hello Gators,* In case you did not catch our two Facebook posts this morning, here is the content of "This Week in Tri Club (September 3-8)" and "This Month in Tri Club: September"... THIS WEEK IN TRI CLUB (SEPTEMBER 3-8)... It might be a short week, but we have plenty of workout options for you! Reminder about our evening rides... Continuing this week and next (i.e. through Thursday 9/12) our Tuesday and Thursday evening rides will start at 6pm due to earlier darkness (after that we'll be transitioning back indoors).

Stay tuned for details coming soon! Have a great week of training! XO💚KO💙CO THIS MONTH IN TRI CLUB... SEPTEMBER 2019! September is a month of transition... Many of us will be finishing our triathlon season, preparing for fall running events, and getting used to lots of other fall stuff such as kids going back to school. Our workout calendar also changes as we move through the month... We completed a fantastic summer of 13 Saturday morning outdoor lap pool swims and offered many Tuesday and Thursday night coached rides. We'll continue to offer the outdoor evening rides for the first two weeks of September (and perhaps we'll attempt to squeeze in an extra week or two outside) and then we'll start our transition to indoor workouts... Tuesday evening spin/core/strength workouts and we're working on a plan for Thursday nights (stay tuned!). We will continue with our occasional Saturday morning outdoor club rides the entire month... Watch for announcements/events regarding these! And Karen Dunn <https://www.facebook.com/karen.dunn.90834776?fref=gs&__tn__=%2CdK-R-R&eid=ARBS-Rz2BpcGDyyhzU2nl-ecKHTMMh4kTp78NS0AomLdrd7yHptKt6vBXxWhq2J6BAvdbwcBmdTEIh0a&dti=216774858507294&hc_location=group>'s fantastic Monday evening outdoor run series will continue... Stay tuned for what is coming up through Karen's event posts! Also, we're back in the indoor lap pool starting this week as the end of summer maintenance is completed and we'll again offer Tues/Thurs morning (10am-11am) coached swims and Mon/Wed evening (8:30pm-9:30pm) coached swims. So, besides all of that, here are the special events we have in store for the rest of September... - Sunday, September 15: CLUB EVENT: IRONMAN Atlantic City 70.3...
