Big Racing weekend for TE

[Wahine]

So I know that Veronica is doing her HIM this weekend on Saturday. This is a really big race for her and we all need to send out lots of posi vibes.
Have fun V.!!!!

Oh, and while you're at it could you just shift those vibes to me on Sunday? I'm going to try to redeem myself at the Troika HIM in Spokane. Here goes my second attempt at a PR at this distance.

Who else is racing this weekend?

[Veronica]

Thanks Wahine!

I'm walking around with my timing chip thingie on my ankle. I never got a chance to run with it, so I'm wearing it all day today. I wonder what sort of funny looks I'll get at the grocery store.

When did you decide to do this one? I thought you were under orders to rest? Or was the rest in prep. for it?

I know you'll do great!

Super fast butterflies headed to Veronica and Wahine. I know you're both going to have great races and I'm looking forward to reading the race reports!!

Hugs, too

Good Luck to both of you. I will send you both postive vibes. You guys will both rock it.

Nothing as big as a HIM, but we are doing a 40 mile mt bike race this weekend.


This may sound like a dumb question, but do they have live coverage for your races like at an IM. Can we track your progress online?

[Iris616]

Good luck to both of you!! I'm looking forward to reading the race reports!

[Veronica]

I don't think mine has live coverage.

Here's the website of mine.

Good luck this weekend to you HIM'ers and to you RNRgirl for your mtn bike race (40 miles of mtn biking IS something big). :D

[salsabike]

We'll be thinking about you guys, you can be sure of that! Have fun, y'all.

Good luck ladies!

I'll be at the Midsummer Oly tri at Blue Lake on Sunday. 2nd time at this distance, and hopefully I'll be faster than my 3:30+ at Pac Crest!

[rocknrollgirl]

This is exciting with so many races this w/e. I am currently trying to totally rest my legs. ( i hate the resting part), so I will swim tomorrow and then nothing till Sunday.

I am sure the HIM girls are in some sort of a taper........

[Urlea]

Kick butt ladies!! I'm sure you'll do great. :D

Looking forward to race reports!

[roadie gal]

Good luck all of you who are racing!

I'm looking forward to all of those great race reports.

[Wahine]

When did you decide to do this one? I thought you were under orders to rest? Or was the rest in prep. for it?

I know you'll do great!

I signed up for this one about 6 weeks ago when I found out my Mom was going to be in Coeur d'Alene that weekend.

The strict rest orders were to try to get rid of my silly virus before the race. My Doc knows I'm racing regardless. Worst case scenario I'm sick for about a week afterward. I feel pretty good today, so hopefully I've already kicked it.

This is a very Wahine friendly course with better temps than I had at Pacific Crest. So if all goes as planned, there is no reason for me not to have an excellent race.

Can't wait to hear how you do!!

[crazycanuck]

Good luck ladies on your endeavors!

I'm sure you'll have wonderful & juicy news to tell us after :cool:

[colby]

[KnottedYet]

Good Luck, all you racers!

(I'm gonna race around the Title 9 sale, then race through my house with the vacuum cleaner, then race to my patio with a cold beer. It's the Knot HIM! ;))

[KSH]

Good luck ladies!!!!

You will both rock it!

[Skeezix]

Good luck Veronica, Wahine and rocknrollgirl!

I'm doing the Cleveland Triathlon this weekend (sprint) on Sunday.

[HillSlugger]

Thanks Wahine!

I'm walking around with my timing chip thingie on my ankle. I never got a chance to run with it, so I'm wearing it all day today. I wonder what sort of funny looks I'll get at the grocery store.
V.

They're gonna think you are under house arrest!

Best of luck in your race.

[tjf9]

Good Luck, all you racers!

Hm - I might have to do that tri on Saturday! (Except I'm more of a wine girl myself ;) ) Are all Title 9 stores having a sale or is it something special in Seattle?

[jobob]

And DrBadger is in the Bay Area this weekend to run a half-marathon.

Good luck DrB, V, and everyone else! :cool:

[Bike Goddess]

Yep! Good luck and all the best to our TE Stars! Looking forward to ride reports next week!:p:p:p

It was last weekend. Wahine's was the Troika HIM. Mine was Barb's Race. Wahine did great! I finished. Actually, finishing was great.

[teigyr]

V did great too AND she got the ultimate in prizes.

Don't think I ever officially commented on that but I am SO impressed :D
