starting in April (other rides in other counties are being contemplated so that
we can reach a wider group).   Until then if you are interested in doing a ride,
post a note to this list serve and let people know your plans (it is helpful to
give a general idea of your speed).  I'll do the same.  It is a great way to
meet people!

http://www.potomacriverrunning.com/details.asp?p=training_group_fun_runs .  I do
these runs just about every week and will be there this week.  Introduce
yourself if you come.  Again - always feel free to post your plans here.
> * Swimming:  I recommend joining a masters program.  You get a work out and a
coach to help with your stroke - which is key!  Many of us spend hours in the
pool doing lap after lap in the hopes of going faster, when a simple fix in
technique produces the same results.  Happened to me... my stroke was too fast -
I didn't stretch and rotate enough.  I was amazed the difference it made! 
Anyway - I go to Arlington Ageless masters (or least I'll start going again this
week).  Others can post where they go...
> * Clinics - As in the past we will host a variety of clinics including the
cycling hill clinic in prep for iron girl, a swim clinic, and this year we will
add a running clinic.
>2.    Tri wear - I always where a sports bra underneath if for no other reason
than having the option to take the top off during the run if it is hot!

>3.    LUNAFEST  - please mark your calendars and plan to join us for LunaFest. 
For more information - go to our events page on Facebook - LUNAFEST  If you are
not on Facebook a separate e-mail with details will be sent to this listserve. 
Until then:

LunaBars - it's not just for girls anymore, so invite your male friends to join
you!
