Just about every local tri club/competitor heads down there for a course preview and a run. Mid-Maryland Tri Club, DC Tri Club, etc. Best idea is to get there EARLY. This helps avoid some of the car and people traffic. <BR/><BR/>I will be going down on Saturday May 10th to do the following: 2 trips of the bike course, first one pretty easy on my road bike, second one faster on my TT bike, then two loops around the lake running. I'm planning on starting at 7am, average speed for the first go around will be in the 18mph range, second will be 21+. You're welcome to join if you feel it would benefit you, or even if you just wanted to start with someone. There will be a few people in my posse.<BR/><BR/>~ Ryan McGrathRMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01079220291482067777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6544860047128404585.post-26283405011458900912008-04-29T07:36:00.000-04:002008-04-29T07:36:00.000-04:00I can't do Thursday am since I will be in NY, but ...I can't do Thursday am since I will be in NY, but I was planning on coming back for Thursday night.

Don't count on me though.<BR/>Unfortunately, I'm going to be in and out of class for the rest of the spring and mostly out during the summer. I hope to follow along with our workouts from there though. And I'll absolutely keep in touch as if I'm still in canton!<BR/><BR/>As for this summer, I'm doing my first real race also! Doing the Philly Women's Tri in July (13th), the Iron Girl in Columbia in August (24th), and Annapolis Olympic in September.<BR/>Also might do the Philly triathlon relay in June.alexishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13045111376954161079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6544860047128404585.post-20082611773101803052008-04-28T18:00:00.000-04:002008-04-28T18:00:00.000-04:00They have done that in the past.....maybe someone ...They have done that in the past.....maybe someone who is racing can let us all know whether this is happening???
