Season Opener Du/Tri
Well, the TE season officially started this past Sunday with the kickoff of our race series….Max Performance’s Season Opener Du/Tri. We had 8 women racing…3 doing the duathlon, and 5 of us crazy enough to do the tri and get in the 58 degree water of Hopkinton. It was a big day for Libby as she completed her first ever triathlon! She did great and we can’t wait to see how the rest of her first season plays out. And our relay team finished 2nd in the female division….go TE!! Great job everyone! Pictures are coming…

Want to know more about triathlon?
Always been curious, but don’t know if you can complete one?
Ever wished you just had someone to explain everything to you?
Well, if any of those answers were a “yes” then we have just the event for you! We host an annual event called Try the Tri. It’s an informative couple of hours about triathlon. The public is welcome (and encouraged) to attend to learn all about triathlons. This year our coach, Tony Rich, will be presenting a quick seminar about a triathlon topic. Then, we will have a panel discussion comprised of an experienced triathlete, a beginner triathlete, and our coach…so you can ask all those questions you’ve been saving. And, of course, there will be food. 
When: Next Saturday, April 14th
Time: 12:30-2:30pm
Where: Simmons College Holmes Sports Center, 331 Brookline Ave. Click here to see it on a map. Once inside the building the front desk will direct you upstairs to the function room.
No RSVP needed….so grab a friend and head on over for an informative afternoon.
Outdoor Track Starts Wednesday
We’re excited to be leaving the small indoor oval of MIT and head outside where a 400m is only one lap, not two. :)
Track practice starts this Wednesday, April 5th at the Brookline track near Jamaica Pond. It will alternate every week with the Watertown track at Victory Field. Please visit the Training page and scroll to the bottom to get all the details. If you have any questions please feel free to email Coach Tony.
Track is only open for current TE members.
Expo was a success!
Thanks to everyone who came out yesterday to help out and made it a great day! We entered the Club Challenge as one of the only all-women’s teams, although there wasn’t a specific category of it, and had a great time competing. We also met a lot of great women and hope they’ll join us this season.
Like this:
Multisport Expo
It’s our favorite time of year again…The Multisport World Conference and Expo is in town! TE will have our tent up and be raffling away a free entry for new members that join at the Expo.

When: Saturday, March 17
