Coastal Racing Club

I've basically trained for a whole year now and learned a wealth of information in that time, much from my NC triathlon connection (thanks Scott). I can honestly say 98% of my training has been done alone. I initially thought this was a good thing since nobody will be there on race day to draft off of. To me, triathlons are about you and the course. There didn't seem to be a need for anyone else.

On Monday I made a great decision to join the Coastal Racing Club in Virginia Beach, VA. It's a bit of a drive for a Newport News resident such as myself but I think it's worth it to hangout and learn from like-minded athletes. Triathlon is not only a sport, it's a lifestyle. It will be nice to chat with people who feel the same way.

I look forward to making new friends and participating in all of our planned group trips, training seminars, meetings, and socials. It feels great to be part of a team again.
