Team Uniforms
Our order went into
production. We expect it to be ready to deliver to everyone by mid-April.
Learn Your Pace
Here is some good info on run pacing and it is
something you can work on when we start track workouts.
Recent Swimming Death
This opinion piece from Slowtwitch.com is a
result of the recent swimming death at the Escape from Alcatraz triathlon. I
strongly encourage you to take advantage of our OWS at Lums Pond.

Bikeline Sponsorship
Our sponsorship has
changed for this year. It will now allow 15% discount on new bikes and 20%
discount on accessories and repairs. We can now use these discounts at both Bikeline
Newark and Bikeline Wilmington.
Swim Fins
If you have been to my
practices you know you need to bring fins with you. If you workout on your own
I suggest incorporating them in your workouts. You can look on the team website
Practice Archives to get suggestions for their use. Click here to see the
type I recommend.
Tri-Dawg Calendar

team website. If you have anything you want to add let me know. Thanks

what it is.
Vasa Trainer
I've talked about this
piece of training equipment for swimming before. Think of Vasa for swimming as
bike trainer for biking. Here is a video
posted by a triathlete coach as to how he uses the trainer. If you hit the
lottery or just have money burning a hole in your pocket, this would be a good
investment.

Summer Lifeguards
Needed
Got a friend or
relative looking for a summer job. Aquatic Management Systems is hiring
lifeguards for the summer. Apply online at www.amspools.com. If certification or recertification is needed you can sign up
online for a Red Cross certified course.
Group Workouts
Our goal is starting
April 1 we will begin running workouts meeting at McKean High School
track every Monday. Click here for a map. Josh
Loren, who ran for Penn State and is on New Balance's running team will be
heading these up. We will run these starting at 6:00 PM and going to around
7:00 PM.
Open water swims at
Lums Pond are scheduled to start in May on Wednesdays 6:00-7:00 PM. We will
most likely be in Area 1 again. Click here for a map. More
details will follow. Vince Lafashia will be heading this up.
Group bike rides will
be Tuesdays starting April 2 around 6:00 PM. They will most likely start
at Avondale Intermediate School and go through the back roads of Amish country.
We figure it's much safer than riding in Delaware. Marianne Moore and Dave
Myers will be heading this up. Click here for a map to the
school.
All of our group
workouts are for Tri-Dawg members only.
Have a great week!
Coach
