You all may have noticed several new races added to the "Upcoming Races" section of the blog. If there are others you want included, let me know and I can have them added. There are four new duathlons that will be in North Carolina in 2008. They are as follows: 
Date - Location - (Run / Bike / Run) 01/19 - Wilmington - (3.1mi / 12.2mi / 1.5mi)
02/16 - Winston Salem - (3.1mi / 14mi / 2mi)
03/01 - Charlotte - (8k / 53k / 8k)
03/22 - Cary - (8k / 53k / 8k)
There are several of you who are cross training now. For anyone who has been spinning or cycling, these events are great opportunities to see how you can do, and try something new. The first two events are "short" races. The second two are "long" events. These events are perfect for those racing in the White Lake Tri. It will give you a chance to experience a race that uses different skill sets, and has transitions. It is a good way to try an event with more than running, without having the extra panic from a swim. This way, by the time you do your first triathlon, the only thing that is new to you is the actual swim. It can help you be more relaxed.
If you have any interest in these event, let us know. We may plan a mini road trip. If you are interested but don't have all of the necessary equipment let people know that too. There may be a person who can help you out.
