Well, chicks, there's 10 days left until the Danskin! Whoohoo!
I wanted to start a thread here because Angel had asked about covering the bike course on Saturday, and I thought we should discuss.
Personally, I'd be glad to DRIVE the course, but I don't want to do more than a short run on Saturday, if anything. 1 bike ride around the course is not going to improve our times, and frankly would probably hurt us more by burning our legs up... especially for beginners.
We've trained... we're ready.
We will do this. :)
I'm coming into Austin on Friday, but staying with a friend's Dad on Friday night near Lake Travis. On Saturday I'm checking into that Arboretum hotel (where Courtney is staying), along with my friend Elysha. We'll be at the Expo Saturday and if Dinner is still on at Chuy's, we'll be doing dinner with y'all. :)
Alana
I am a 32 year old new mother to twin boys! I participated in the Danskin Chicagoland triathlon in July 2008 and I look forward to the '09 event with all of these wonderful ladies.
Coco
I'm Courtney. 32 years old, single, no heirs to the throne. I completed my first triathlon in July 2008 and fell in love. I look forward to continuing the multisport journey with my fellow Tri Divas!
Donna "Cassie"s Mommy"
A 40 year young Mom, Wife and student who enjoys taking on new challenges, but often needs needs a lesson or two in balancing between work, school, home and training. My words of wisdom, "Do it while you're young -- it doesn't get any easier later, and there is NEVER a good time."
Jenn
My name is Jenn, I'm 35 years old and live in the Chicago Suburbs. When CoCo talked me into this Tri thing, I thought she was nuts, but I'm so glad she did. I've caught the Tri bug! I even became a certified tri-coach through HeartZones and will be Team Administrator for the NW Suburban Trek Tri Training group again this summer. I am also now a member of USAT! I've also rejoined Weight Watchers and am determined to not let my extra fluff or my fibromyalgia hold me back! Happy Training!
Jennifer
I am a 36 year YOUNG, single mother of two (very grown) teenagers, and grandmother, to the most perfect little boy ever born. I am currently on a mission to break an image that no longer defines who I am!!
Julie
I'm Julie. I'm 33 years old, and single... and can finally claim a medal... it may not be a gold one, but I can now show off my finisher's medal, my finisher's hat and my finisher's towel... I'm so excited for new and different events and my next attempt, after Sweet and Twisted booze and cake, will be an Olympic distance.
Lass
I'm Lesli. 33 years old. Single with two furkids. I am a systems librarian for a group of medical libraries. I joined Weight Watchers in 2001. Left in 2003 b/c I wasn't happy with the direction my journey was headed. Coco convinced me (finally) that a triathlon was just the thing to kick my butt in gear...that was 2008. It's 2009, I was crazy enough to tri it again...and have the finisher's medal to prove it.
Lynnderful
My name is Lynn, I'm 32 years old, single with no children. I'm embarking on this mission to become a triathlete because I want to prove to myself that I am strong enough. I'm also looking forward to seeing my fellow Tri-Divas achieve their goals!

If anything, I'd like to see the bike course...
I'm definately in for dinner at Chuy's...
And whatever else we can cram in without exhausting ourselves, ha!
I agree...a short run is best. I'm not trying to beat up my legs before the tri.
Alana and I will be arriving around 12-1pm on Friday afternoon.
We'll be at the Expo when it opens on Saturday morning and dinner is definitely still on at the Hula Hut! :)
Do we all want to meet up on Saturday morning and go to the expo together???
That's cool with me! It starts at 10, right? We can head out early and be there right when it opens. Hooray for swag! LOL
don't we rack the bikes on saturday?
Yes, we do...so if we're going to do a short run on the course, it will have to be sometime on Friday or EARLY Saturday morning....or we can just drive it. I'm game for whatever. :)
Yeah... I would like to go the expo together if we could... we should wear our shirts!
I'm up for whatever the group wants to do. I'm flexible. My flight arrives at 10 or so. I'll be finding something to do until Court and Alana arrive.
