No swimming for tomorrow, President's Day.

We'll have the opening social Wednesday so we may not have swimming then either. Hope to see everyone there!

Happy V-Day!!

Hey everybody,

Due to popular request, and in observance of valentines day, we will not be having swim practice Monday night. Instead, spend it with you valentine (find one first if you have to) and do something fun. We will swim on Wednesday.

Thanks,

Annette

Cyclist's for life!!

Hey guys!! Sorry about the long time without blogging...

First order of business- Whoever wants to go cycling, please do contact me!!! Even if you feel you don't have that great of a bike, no pressure. :)

Second order of business- I will start posting up routes and what they are best for. For instance-- Hills; good for  strengthening muscles and betters your sprints on a flat road. And longer rides increase endurance. I know, I feel as if I am stating the obvious, but bare with me.

Third order of business- I need some feedback on what people need help with. From learning how to ride a bike, to learning how to get into the LOTOJA. As well as bike fittings, yes that really does make a huge difference.

Last but not least of the orders in business- The weather has not been all that kind to us, so I am still looking into a cycling class from Tavoian at Spirit. But in the meanwhile, is anyone opposed to riding inside? Or would you prefer riding against the wind on a chilly winter day? Haha

So I hope everyone is having a great time with running and swimming and cycling! Ambition is in the air!! We must just inhale it and embrace it. Peace, Love, and keep your same astrological sign. Rebel against the newb!!

Thanks again everyone, Jose Gonzalez

Postscript, eat your greens. You will feel refreshed during the day, and will have a much happier workout :D
