3 Steps to Plan and Prepare for your “A” Race
Step 1: choose wisely….distance/location/weather
Step 2: Back out 4 to 8 weeks from the main event and pick two training lead up races. This allows you to pace your training for the season as opposed to gearing up for a single event.
Step 3: Find some training partners….got that covered.

4. Reward Jewelry:
I have a lady who is designing necklaces for us that will say swim, bike, run or will have the symbols for the tri as well as our team name on it. You can see what her necklaces look like at heartonyourwrist.com Her jewelry is beautiful and she is making a design special for us. We will get a percentage off the prices you see on the website and free shipping. I am currently waiting on some sample pics from her and I will post them on the blog. I always think an accomplishment of this magnitude deserves jewels.
T-shirts: We should have these on Thurs 22 Apr 10. We have a sponsor so we have to learn about Carolina Back Institute. We may have a training session with them so we know who they are and what they do!
