Let The Racing Begin!


It's hard to believe that we are into February of 2008, the TTE Winter Training Camp is around the corner AND the races have begun! I'd like to take this chance to recognize some of the team for their efforts going back to 2007 and results in the last few weeks! So briefly ...

Inside Triathlon All Americans - this is a very exclusive club, more so than USA Triathlon All Americans as only 10 are named per age group. I'm sure we'll add more All Americans when the USAT Magazine comes out! Anyway ...

Chuck Sloan - Not Only was Chuck a 30-34 AG All American but he was named TOP 30-34 Ag'er in the country for 2008 by Inside Triathlon.

Rob Chance - This is the first time Rob has been named to this team and it is a kind reward for his excellance last year, especially in all the high profile races!

Tulsa Indoor Triathlon
Amanda Erwin - First Overall (and first overall team with Dana Chance)
Dana Chance - First Place Womens Team, Fastest Run Split
* Dana and Amanda will both be running half marathons this wekend in Austin Tx.

Davis Stampeded Races & San Francisco Half Marathon
Tom Anderson - Age Group 1st - Davis Half Marathon
John Lander - Age Group 2nd - Davis Half Marathon
Nuvit Foster - Age Group 2nd - Davis Half Marathon
Scott Wing - Running a little under the weather pressed through to a strong finish!
Jennifer Surprise -Age Group 5th - Davis 10k
Layne Scoggins - Age Group 9th - Davis 10k
Marcus Hartley - Dusting off the cobwebs ;) ... good on'ya Marcus!
Jamie Lau - New personal best at the SF Half Marathon

The picture at the top is of your's truely (me hinding behind the big guy in green;) doing his first race in over 2 years! It stung a little as I saw HR's I haven't seen for longer than two years, but it was great to clean out the engine ;) Nothing spectacular but happy with a finish in the main bunch!

For the next 10 days or so all the updates here will be about the Annual Winter Training Camp!

Cheers ... DL
