A Note from the Coach
.....................

As we all get excited for the new year everyone wants to take a peak at their ATP (Annual Training Plan) for 2015. For some of you I have updated it and for others I have not gotten that far. I use the ATP to guide me with your training through the year so it is actually one of the most important items that Training Peaks contains. I know it is possible for you to add to it, it is also possible for you to accidentally delete the entire ATP as some of you have found. Ideally I will input and/or delete races from your ATP. Look, but don't touch!

Group workouts for 2015 are going to be announced very soon. We have spent a lot of time trying to organize times that will hopefully work for the majority of you. Troy Harman and Adam Fisher will be heading up a lot of the mountain biking and Nicole Ramsbey will be leading group runs every other weekend. I should have the calendar on the website updated within the next few days so please refer to that as often as you need to. Take the opportunities to train with our group when you can. You will have more fun, learn something and make new friends!

For now I hope you are  all enjoying the off-season. This is the first weekend quite possibly all year that I can remember that no one is racing. I actually think that is a good thing since we seem to have a very long race season here in the Carolinas.

Coach Katie


I just found this shot of some of our group at B2B and since we don't have a lot of shots of Bob I wanted to make sure to get this one in the newsletter!

Keep in mind that if you want to swimmer better and faster and be more motivated to get in the pool you need to use the resources that we have available to us.

Greenville Splash has more workouts geared for beginners. They are trying to get another beginner type workout at Caine Halter in the mornings. If they have more people demanding it...they can!

They also have a coach that works great with beginners. She also coaches Thursdays at GHS YMCA from noon to 1:00.

Put a "Boot" in your bag!
Carry this in your repair bag on your bike


You might be wondering what a "boot" is well basically it is a piece of old tire cut to maybe 2-3 inches long that you carry with you just in case you blow out a side wall of your tire or have a really big gash in your tire that you can't repair. (Yes, you can use a dollar bill or an empty Gu pack) but this works even better to get you home safely. Heck, it might even save you in your next race. Next time you change your tires - cut a few of these out. Save a few for yourself and give a few to friends.

CompuTrainer Time
Starts SEPTEMBER 29th!

Negative Split Club
2014 Members

You are invited to be a member of the "negative split club" by being given the challenge by your coach in your race description. There is nothing negative about this club. A Negative Split simply means that you ran the first half of the race slower than the last half which takes discipline and pacing. You have to submit your Garmin GPS file for verification. The reward? Usually a great race and we send you an awesome travel coffee mug!
