Race this weekend

[Ashley Whitney]

Parents~

Spoke with Kathleen Johnston, SE Youth Development Team Coach.
She is holding a practice later in the day on Saturday- 2:00pm.
You are more than welcome to hang around to watch them practice. I can't stay that long on Saturday, but I am able to make it Sunday morning.
My suggestion is to come watch them Sunday morning in action.
They are amazing to watch!
The Sprint race, which the youth development team is racing, starts @ 7:30am on Sunday.
Best place to watch the race is from the Pedestrian Bridge- birds eye view of the swim and both transitions before they run by you on the bridge.
Arthur Liu and Georghe Meyer, Excel triathletes, are also racing on Sunday!

Kids Duathlon on Saturday:
We talked about race strategy at practice on Wednesday.
Run, bike, run
The first run should be about 85%-90% maximum effort.
Bike should be 100%
Second run should be 100%.
The people who went out blazing fast the first run, will be falling apart on the second run.
Our goal is to pass as many people possible on the bike and second run.

Have your race belt on at the start of the race and keep it on for the entire distance.

What to bring to the race:
Lots of stuff of stuff to drink and snack on before/after the race.
Team shirt, suit and race belt.
Tennis shoes
Bike
Helmet
Towel x 2
Keep transitions simple and clean.

If you have any questions before then or race morning, feel free to call me.

See you Saturday morning!
