Happy Monday!


Our next group training will be this Friday, July 1st to kick off the holiday weekend.   Meet up time will be 7:00 am!  

Parking:  We'll meet at Crystal Lake in Gray.  Link to location here: map

Swim (7:00 am):  We'll meet in the parking lot at 7:00 and plan to get in the water at 7:15.  Swim duration and distance will be up to each individual, but in general we'll try to buddy up and swim parallel to the western shore for about 30-45 min.  

Bike (8:00 am):  Two options – one is a 21 mile Bike Route (mapmyride) and the other is a shorter loop that breaks off the longer loop:  13.4 mile Bike Route (mapmyride).  Both courses are reasonably hilly.  We can decide on Friday which course to do or if there should be two groups.  This will be a no-drop ride!

For the bike leg, we'll meet at 8:00 in the parking lot at Crystal Lake to get ready, and we'll aim to start at 8:15.  Depending on distance and pace chosen by the group, the bike may take between 1 and 2 hours and should finish between 9:15 and 10:15.   

Run (9:30 to 10:30 am):  3.1 Miles Around the Lake (mapmyride)  To complete the morning we'll have a scenic run around the lake,  This map is shown running the loop clockwise, but running it counterclockwise (since part of the run is on Route 26) would be safer.         

More info and RSVP:  I'll be the contact person and can be reached at 207-939-0015. Call or text in case of any questions or a change in plans.  I will post here again later in the week with any updates.

If you're interested, please reply to this topic to let us know you will be attending! 

Hope you can join us!

I hope to attend the bike section of this one! It's pretty close to my house, so I could bike to the meeting location :)
Also, I was curious - is it okay for significant others or family to tag along, even if they do not work at IDEXX?

Yes, we have had significant others and a few non-IDEXXers from 207 Multi-sport join us for some of these weekend training rides.  See you Friday!

I'm planning to attend as well! This will be my first ever swim-bike-run sequence so I hope I can find a chill person or two to go through it with :) Either way, looking forward to it!

I'm a definite maybe :).   
We have family in town so I may not be able to join this time...  We'll see!

Change in plans - I won't make it to the bike ride tomorrow morning - Still healing from a knee injury and biking today didn't go so well, so I'd better hold off for now.

Sorry I'm going to miss this one but unfortunately I'm unable to make it tomorrow.  Family is visiting from out of town and we have to go to the beach instead :)

Have a great swim, bike and run everyone!!!

I'm probably going to bow out of tomorrow's session, too, due to a surprise visit from friends out of town.  Hopefully next weekend, though!

Sorry this morning didn't work out for more of you. Galina and I had a great swim before a short but hilly bike ride! It was a beautiful morning to be out there. Have a great 4th everyone and hope to train with you soon!
