Thanks to all who weighed in on my previous front hydration system question. I need to add a double rear bottle cage to my saddle and am looking for recommendations. Thanks!

Hi everyone! I am doing the 70.3 Eagleman this June. I messed up a bit here, and I am late the party to booking my hotel that weekend. I wanted to see if anyone who is also racing that weekend, has an extra bed/room ect. that they are looking to fill to help with the cost of things.

Hey all! I’m looking to add a between the arms hydration system for my road bike. Any suggestions? Have folks tried this before? https://xlab-usa.com/torpedo-system-400.html?srsltid=AfmBOopzPA9rMqH3dl-HFXpm4wgYURNBI9nIrHncn7TMleRCJjopHhIA

Hello,

I’m new to DC tri club and new ish to the area. I live in Bethesda.

I’m looking for training partners as the months are starting to get a bit warmer. Im struggling to find any information about social meets the club may have. I can see dates but no information about them. I’m on the track Tuesday mornings here in Bethesda and run…

I’m interested in the coached Olympic program but missed the Jan 14 kick-off! Is there anyone here who is currently part of the program or has done it in the past that would be willing to share some info? Mostly wondering about training times/locations, what the training plan looks like, and if joining a few days late is ok!

Hi, I’m new to the club and hoping to meet anyone else who will be competing in Lake Placid this July. Any advice for how to get in touch with the right people would be very welcome!

Hi everyone,

I’m new to the club (just signed up!) and was wondering if there’s a beginner’s “must-buy” gear list available. My big goal is to complete the Maryland Ironman next year. I feel confident on the cycling side, but I’m currently focusing on improving my swimming and running.

Thanks in advance for any advice!

Does anyone train in Rockville/North Bethesda? I would love to meet people, but I can’t make it to the DC workouts.

Also, is anyone planning on doing the Lake Montclair or Luray triathlon? I am new to triathlons (but couldn’t sign up for the NTP), and it would be great to know someone there.

Hi all, looking for less-expensive swim coaching recs in DC (or close by) to help me get through a training/speed plateau. Open to anything that falls between a really good swimmer giving me some coaching tips for a 6-pack (or food/bev of choice!) to a swim coach for 3-4 lessons for <$250.

My training TLDR: this is my third season of…

***Anyone want my campsite for Kinetic Tri?***

Hello! If you’re planning on the Kinetic triathlon festival at Lake Anna May 10-11, I reserved a campsite for the Lake Anna campground for the Friday and Saturday nights of race weekend and I am no longer planning on the race. It’s a tent-only site (#21, on the outside of the second loop). Before…

Why is a rest & recovery day the most frustrating! Looking forward to riding tomorrow – weather says light winds – even if temps on the chilly side 🚴🏻‍♂️🚴🏻‍♂️🚴🏻‍♂️

Has anyone else suddenly experienced a power imbalance in the legs while cycling? I rode all winter on the trainer at 50% per on each side. As soon as I switched to outside I started riding at 53 or 54% on my right side. I tried going back on the trainer, but now it is showing the same imbalance. I tried recalibrating my power meter…

Hey everyone! Does anyone know a good massage therapist who specializes in tension release, discharge massage, or compression massage for pain relief from running? Looking for someone who can help with muscle recovery. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

Hi,

Does anyone have any advice or resources they might recommend when planning for a multi race season. I’m doing two 70.3s this year and trying to figure out how to best plan my training and would appreciate any advice! Thanks!

Does anyone have tips, recs, or references for balancing cardio/strength/flexibility as sarcopenia becomes a consideration? I’m new to multisport, having a blast, and casually observed that programs tend to focus on the cardio. While I enjoy that leg most, I learned that I need to pay attention to the other two as well. Also, if I take this to…

Has any one ever studied cadence vs speed vs heart rate vs power when cycling? All related, but do you target each one individually? Obviously the faster you go, the other three should increase, but that is not always true. I can have the same power output, but a super high cadence or a low cadence thanks to my gears. I have learned that…

Hi everyone! I am new to DC Tri Club. This will be my fourth sprint I am training for but this time I actually want to improve my speed, before I just did it to finish. Does anyone have any good training/workout plans? I am going to do Rock Hall in June and then another one in Spain in May.
