Great and very honest post. I would add that if any woman feels she needs an ally or advocate or someone to listen, please feel free to reach out to me! My FB messenger inbox is always open, whether you know me or not (yet).
And to any men reading this who might want context, this article isn’t perfect but provides some good perspective on this topic.
My boyfriend and I are planning to stay at The Historic Powhatan Friday and Saturday night — we stayed there two years ago for this race and it was the perfect home base. Anyone interested in splitting a two bedroom? We plan to book this Friday the 9th.
I am not doing Eagleman but I AM training for Atlantic City so…same thing, right? I can do either the 20th or 27th.
I am planning to race the Olympic on Saturday and would be interested! My boyfriend’s planning to come, as well.
I would highly recommend taking some classes at Wired Cycling in NE (www.wiredcycling.com). Look for Leti, Claudette or Lauren (me) on the schedule — all are serious cyclists and/or triathletes and teach accordingly — but all of the instructors are great! They’re all equipped with power meters and cadence sensors, so you can track your progress and ride accordingly.
Off Road is also an awesome studio with a lot of cyclists and triathletes on the schedule. A couple of NOVA bike shops also offer Computrainer classes (The Bike Lane Reston and Green Lizard Cycling). Another favorite instructor who is into cycling is Dru Ryan — he teaches at Mint, Biker Barre and Equinox.
