Danskin Seattle Tri Training Group

Definitely Super Jock and Jill. My PT sent me there, and sometimes they do complimentary consults there as well. I've been happy with my purchases there. They've even said you need to try them out for a few days, walk/run outside to test them out, and you can STILL bring them back if you're not happy. I probably tried out six pairs of shoes the last time I was there to make sure I had the right amount of fit & support, and never felt rushed or pressured.

I'll third Super Jock 'n Jill. Super helpful, very patient, and a great return policy. Also, one night a week they have podiatrists and physical therapists in the store to answer any questions you might have beyond the salesperson's expertise. But, even the really young looking salespeople seem to possess tons of knowledge...at least, that was my experience.

I'll be there. Dunno what I'll be wearing.

I hope I'll be wearing something....

Well. Did some freestyle laps this morning in the hotel pool. Expect I need to start TRAINING soon. Realized that my last actual stroke instruction was when I was, like, ten years old. Thinking I have a lot to learn about efficiency....

Total Immersion does a very expensive two day workshop that looks like fun, and I'm thinking about doing that.

Thanks for the shoe store recs---very convincing.

Have fun at the meeting---see you at the next one.

I'd love to join you folks, but I was too slow to register for the Danskin, and so am doing a tri in mid-July (the Chelanman "Try-a-Tri") instead. I'd love to get together with some other tri-newbies, though, so I'd like to join if you'll have me

Is this still on? I might be sore but I'm definitely up for a light jog after coffee.

Knot, if you decide to go sans clothing I hope it gets warmer out

Marisa, I think it would be great if you could go. The more the merrier, I think.

Oh Salsa, to answer WAY back when, I go to a gym on Aurora and 130th or so. If you do the TI workshop, let me know. I did it last fall and the instructor is very nice. Private lessons are the same price as the clinic also. The gym that she uses is...how do I say this...incredible.
