Sunday, September 14 – Pinchot Olympic Triathlon in Lewisberry, PA (60 miles away)

Saturday, October 4 – Giant Acorn Sprint Triathlon at Lake Anna in Bumpass, VA

 I have room in my van for others if you want to do the Giant Acorn.  The race starts at 10am so there is no overnight expense.  I will be going there in the morning.  There are limited spots remaining.  Let me know if you would like to join me……the family cannot make this one.

And it’s unfortunately going to be a HOT ONE!  Temps forecasted for the run in the 90s – YUK!  Well, we’ll al have to hydrate and take it easy. 

Tribe members who I know have signed up:

Julien Coiner

Lucas McCollum

Mike Orsini

Mike Matney

Tamara Bruce

Bernie Sellers

Geoff Irwin

Vicki Bate

Herb Spicer

And yours truly, “Race Report” Dave

If I missed anyone, let me know and I’ll amend the list.  We should have some “war” stories to tell and I hope to take some good pics of the Expo area and maybe some of the pros on Saturday. 

Including yours truly, I know the following folks are signed up to compete at Eagleman on June 8:

- Julien Coiner

Anyone else?  Hopefully, we can have a big Tribe celebration afterwards!
