Happy New Year!

Happy New Year from the Baydogs! So you've just finished eating, drinking, and being merry...now you want to start your new year's resolution of getting fit. What better way to do that than to join the Barrie Triathlon Club! Triathlon is one of the fastest growing sports, and involves many different age groups and many different athletic abilities. From preparing to do your first tri, wanting to improve on past times, to taking that next step to half-iron distance/full-iron distance, the Barrie Triathlon Club can help you prepare. You will not find a better group of individuals that will help you achieve your athletic dreams in a positive manner.

2012 is going to be a big year for many returning members, and hopefully we can help new members achieve their athletic goals as well!

Community Booth at Georgian Mall

On December 28th, the Barrie Triathlon Club will be setting up at the Georgian Mall with information on plans for 2012, and the opportunity to take advantage of early season registration! When you are out doing your Boxing Week shopping, stop by and say hi (and register for the season!!)

Baydogs Participate in Man in Motion Relay

Barrie TC Baydog Ryan Blake took part in Rick Hanson's Man in Motion tour this past weekend. Congratulations Ryan on being part of a fantastic event!

In Transition

"Oh the weather outside is frightful..."

Okay, maybe not so much. BUT, most triathletes are in their off-season at the moment, getting ready for that New Year's Resolution back-into-training plan, or perhaps you took your off season earlier, and now you're gearing up for some early winter/mid winter running races.

There are a multitude of events coming up:

Orillia SnowFlake Series
Barrie Running Room Santa Shuffle
Barrie Running Room Resolution Run
Chilly 1/2 Marathon
Peterborough 1/2 Marathon

Also, the club has some big things in the works for winter training. We can't go into details just yet, but if everything works out, we're hoping to take your training to a whole new level!

So enjoy your "transition" from racing to training season. Enjoy some holiday cheer guilt-free knowing that soon you'll be pounding that snow drift with your yak-trax with a cold winter head wind, wishing it were summer!

2011 Social Success...Bring on 2012!

Great showing last Saturday night at the Lockerroom by the Baydogs. Some boisterous talk, bravado bragging of 2011, goals set for 2012, training plans discussed and disected. A great end to a great season! And to think, 2012 is going to be way better!!!!
