I believe it’s still summer time, 7:30 in Georgetown. This weekend there could be some folks out at Waterman’s Tri but there’s usually someone there!

You’ll be fine. With a Gran Fondo, you won’t be racing the whole time as only the timed segments count. You can either go hard on the timed segments or take it leisurely like a century ride.

I’m doing the Gran route but anyone can join for any distance. The fun thing about Gran Fondo is that you can sort of ride together in between segments so we…[Read more]

Hi Chelsey, I think the place that the club would go to is Giuseppe’s. There’s also a lot of breweries but that might be better for post-race. Have a good race!

Welcome to the club, Greg! Some great riding in Frederick. There’s a club happy hour this Thursday if you would like to join and meet some other members.

Welcome to the club! You could try looking at Waterman’s or Pleasants Landing for something towards the end of the year. Usually there are quite a few club members at one of those races.

Welcome to the club! Hopefully we’ll meet you soon at a race or happy hour.

Hi Martha, you can also try posting in the DC Tri Off-Road Interest FB group. There were a several folks that did it a couple of years ago, not sure if everyone sold their suits!

Hi Axel, you could also try posting in the Masters Swim FB group to see if any of the coaches are certified. USMS also has a list of certified coaches and clubs in the area, if you look under “Potomac Valley.”

Good luck!

Hi Margaret, not sure if you’ve tried the pool reservation but they have a list there. I’ve seen folks posting on social media for Marie Reed, Takoma, and Wilson so or sure they are open!

You could try checking the IM Lake Placid FB group. Every now someone posts if they have a group house or had to cancel their reservation. From what I’ve read, hotels usually have rooms with a single bed available in case you need that as a backup!

Forgot to add this write-up in case you’d like to see what the last clinic was like: http://www.dankmeyer.com/in-the-community

Hi Mark, I don’t know about Total 200 but I’ve see some Virginia rides listed and some of them occurred last year like the Culpepper Century and Loudon Gravel Grinder so I think a good chance of them occurring again.

I did the Hagerstown Duathlon where I believe they followed the USAT guidelines. The bikes were spaced out more in transition so instead of having 6-7 bikes per rack it was only 3 which felt luxurious. It was a timed start and you had to wear a face covering when not racing. They had bin at the start if you wanted to drop your mask and also gave…[Read more]
