THIS WEEK IN TRI CLUB (September 21-27)! Fall arrives this week (Tuesday 9/22, 9:31amEDT), so you have one more chance this summer to take in an official club workout at Monday night's SVY indoor swim! Then we'll kick things off for the autumn with a Tuesday morning swim taking place during the first hour of fall! As there is limited capacity for our swims (24 for Monday night and Sunday morning and 8 for Tuesday and Friday mornings), please use our swim workouts attendance survey to indicate whether or not you will be there... Also, update for Tuesday and Friday swims... Don Schlichtmann is NOT able to lead the workouts this week, so both will be UNCOACHED group workouts; we've updated our survey to indicate this... If you had previously indicated that you were planning to attend (Joyce and Holly for Tues and Joyce Williams and Kristen for Friday, please go back to the survey and recheck the new options). Also, if you cannot make our club swim workouts, take advantage of some of the many opportunities available to you from our club sponsors, French Creek Racing and Mid-Atlantic Multisport (who is offering their final OWS of the year this Wednesday evening)! For more details see... Mid-Atlantic Multisport: https://sites.google.com/midatlanticmul.../openwater/home... French Creek Racing: https://www.facebook.com/groups/Frenchcreekswimtraining And please note that this week's evening club rides (Tuesday and Thursday) have been bumped up to 5:45pm and will be about an hour in duration due to earlier sunsets. We're in our final two weeks of outdoor evening rides, so take advantage before we move back indoors! We also have a couple of club events taking place over the weekend with Gators participating in both! Finally, if you have not already done so, don't forget to register for the fall Gator Fitness Challenge, which begins in two weeks on Monday, October 5! See the post under "Announcements" and post a comment if you'd like to join the 40+ Gators already signed up! Just a reminder to please observe social distancing before, during, and after our workouts and always have a mask with you as those are the best way to ensure that we can continue to offer club cycling, running, and swim workouts. Here is what is on the calendar for this week; to assist us with planning, please indicate "Going" for any events that you plan to attend...
