Tuesday, June 30, 2009 at 12:07PM Congratulations to Allison Hirst who became to the newest client to complete the TARGETCHALLENGE. She completed the 6am track session at Staples High School, the 7:30am Indoor Cycling Class, the 9am TARGETBURN class and the 10am Core Class!
Tuesday, June 30, 2009 at 11:32AM This is a VERY short post, but due to the lack of official race results (huge result SNAFU), I can't discuss the specific performances of all the TT folk that competed in the Stamford KIC IT Olympic Triathlon this past Sunday. However, I do have it on good authority (Kristin) that TargeTraining are the CONNECTICUT STATE TRIATHLON CLUB CHAMPIONS! I can also say that a stellar 1-2-3 performance by the women (Suzie-Kristin-Megan) and (I daresay) strong races by myself and team newbie John Baxendale did the job. More detail, results, etc. to follow once they're delivered by race officials. Great job, team, and congrats to all the TT folk that raced!

A bit shocked from waking up after a full 8hrs of undisturbed sleep, it’s been a couple of years, I moseyed on over to my road bike disappointed to find that it did not fix itself over night. After a few choice words to it, I focused on the task at hand. Coffee!
It was yet another sunny and hot day here, which provided me a perfect opportunity to preview the time trial course. Unlike the road course, the time trial route was a good 35 miles from the hotel so I hitched a ride half way, and rode the rest.
Most national time trial courses are around 40k long and relatively flat. This year they threw the rules out the window. This course is short at 25k, but it doesn’t have a single flat section to it. Conducted on an exposed and wide open 4 lane highway, you are at the mercy to the elements. This may not be a standard test, but people will certainly suffer none the less.
Out in the middle of nowhere, I set about at the task of ridding back to my hotel. Easier said than done as it was a full on block head wind and rollers all the way back through corn, soy and tobacco fields. What a ride!
Having a couple of free hours in the afternoon, I decided that a trip to Louisville was not complete without a visit to the Louisville Slugger factory. This is well worth the $10 admission. The company does a great job with the factory tour and you feel proud to see the success of a local home grown business! The bonus to the tour was getting a mini bat which is going straight to my son Caden! Time to move the fine china as batting practice will ensue as soon as I get back.
Oh and that picture of a batt, it's a good 10 stories high!!
