A quick reminder that registration for the Army 10 Miler opened today. This race is massive but it still fills quickly. If you plan on running, don't delay on...
Just doing a little spring cleaning. Nothing high end, but still functional. If you've ever wanted to try bicycle rollers, they don't come any cheaper. :) ...
Not sure how many of you follow the science of sport blog but this recent post is an interesting take on fore and mid foot strike running versus heel strike. ...
Note - running is my weakest link in triathlon so take the following with a grain of salt! The real question is probably not what part of the foot you land on,...
What can you tell me about the Worldgate Tri group? I just joined and I need some motivation of a group of Triathletes. What can you tell me about the Saturday...
Talk about a loaded question! Welcome to the list. You need to be a bit more specific regarding advice, and training schedules are generally from hired...
But wouldn't this club benefit from posting some sample training plans for paying members? Talk about loaded. On Tue, Apr 1, 2008 at 11:02 PM, Debi Bernardes...
It would Reid. I agree. There are a number of people who really devote their time and energy to the Club. A couple weeks ago Keith put out an excellent list...
Welcome to the RATS! As for formal training plans that's something I've been discussing with a couple members. Hopefully I can get them to start putting some...
Hey Tri Rats, I'm a brand new member, so I don't know how this works, please forgive any missteps till I learn the Tri taboos. Looks like we have 8 Tri Rats...
Great article. I am in complete agreement with Mike on this one. One's footstrike becomes an EFFECT of where your foot lands, rather than the cause of some...
Welcome Richard. I'd encourage you to check out the website: www.trirats.net and read past year's race reports. I find the best insights to courses and race...
Welcome to the group! A few of us are heading down on Friday afternoon and racing both days, we'll have the RATS tent so keep your eyes open for that. Folks...
I agree with Eric here. As a former hard core heel striker I was often injured. When I changed my stride to become more efficient (i.e. quicker cadence) I...
I've read somewhere that one should try to each WITHIN 30mn of a work out to benefit the most from the meal/snack. 1- is that true? 2- what would you recommend...
Anything and as much as you want! That's why we work out!!! Seriously, I have zero food plan although I probably should. But Orton, Kunkel, and the rest of...
POSt-workout it is important to consume something within 30 minutes. It makes a difference in term of quick recovery. You should try and consume some readily...
That's a huge matter of debate. There's also a lot of marketing going around on this subject as well. I just returned from a triathlon conference in Boston...
John: Many of the WG triathletes are ALSO RATS (me included I guess). The start of that group was primarily a Master’s swim group at the Club. Katie ...
Dan Hicok sent me a box of the new TRI-DC magazine. I love this magazine and I think the latest edition is the best yet. It has another great article from our...
Okay, now that we've totally figured out foundation garments (THANKS to the ladies and gentleman who wrote on that) ... here's another question: Normally,...
You can get prescription goggles in the $25-$35 range, I believe. That sounds like what you want for training. For competition you can usually leave your...
There is definitely a set of goggles out there that will fit. Head to a store like Aardvark in Sterling where they have a bunch of different styles and try...
As a member of RATS, but a non-resident of Reston, I am often jealous of your pool situation. Well, I just received in the mail an offer to join the...
They would never allow the race to go on in those conditions nowadays. Check out this video of the Gavia in Giro 1988. Absolute insanity. I love the last 30...
And I thought riding in a downpour for 30 minutes at 45 degrees was bad...I think I'm now officially a wimp. Those guys are crazy! Hey Dev Paul!!! ... ...
I've used these prescription goggles. Other prescriptioin models available as well. http://www.swimoutlet.com/product_p/1777.htm ... (THANKS to ... put ... ...
