WEDNESDAY EARLY MORNING ROAD BIKE RIDE @ WEST SIDE YMCA with ride leader Deb Ernst
The weather is beautiful and we're still riding. We decided to keep on riding until the snow flies, so come on and join us. Install head and tail lights and watch the sun come up with us.

What's coming up @ In Competition Sports!

Hello!
I hope you are all recovering from a busy, tiring 4th of July holiday weekend. Who sits still nowadays and relaxes, right? Our family goes up north every 4th of July to a family cabin and we run the Mellen Bell Ringer 5-mile run and the kids and grandparents do the 2-mile run/walk. We then eat the Roly Poly lunch (do you know what that is?) in the fire station, watch a very short parade that basically chucks candy at the kids. Then we ride on top of an old fashion fire truck. Now where else but Mellen, WI can you do that? I still have a few piles of clothes in the laundry room and no milk or groceries, so that’s where I’m heading next. I hope you enjoyed your 4th!

WEDNESDAY MORNING RIDE:
Remember we ride on Wednesday mornings at the west side YMCA at 5:30am until 7am. Join us! It’s a lot of fun!

VIDEO GAIT ANALYSIS AND SPORTS INJURY ASSESSMENTS
Who knew running could be so complicated. Let the professionals from Aurora Sports Medicine help you achieve efficient and painless running or improve your performance by taking a look at how you run. A video gait analysis will reveal any faults in your running form. Weak and inflexible muscles, if stressed by a lot of running over time, can lead to injury or lingering soreness. And even a simple movement such as an excessive arm swing can make a difference by adding precious seconds to your running times. Todd and Corey will evaluate your foot motion, muscle flexibility and strength during normal running. Practicing specific running technique drills will improve your strength, speed, flexibility and balance. Using the analysis to find comfortable -- and productive — footwear will reduce your risk of injury or help any lingering aches and pains.
Come on - be the less injured one!

Wednesday Early Morning Ride from the West Side YMCA @ 5:30am to 7am
We had a hot steamy ride this morning and enjoyed the camaraderie of riding together. And believe it or not, we DID NOT get wet last Wednesday. We did go home with very dirty bikes from the wet roads to the chagrin of my husband Mark who kindly cleans my bike for me. You now know another rule, if it’s raining at your house; it may not be at the west side YMCA when we start. Well, I will state it look like we were going to get wet and it was tempting to just run, but Gail rode her bike to the YMCA and that was that. We rode! I'm glad we did!

COMING UP!

TNR June 23rd. Hot and Juicy

Whew! Record heat and 93 degrees made for a steamer last night for 15 riders. It was only a month ago that the flushed look on everyone’s face was caused by cold.

We have hit the peak of Pea Gravel season and several roads were full of it. A couple flats added to the heat but that all said it was comfortable and everyone went home happy.

This weekend we have the Door County Triathlon Pre-ride. See our website at www.incompetition.com for details.

We also have the Giant Bicycles Team Demo rig coming to the Reforest ration Camp on Sunday 12-4. There are both road and mountain bikes to ride (nice ones too) so come on out. See www.incompetition.com as well for info.

Next Tues, the heat should continue, how sweet is that? See you at 5:30pm SO2

Rain Rain Go Away!

Wednesday Early Morning Ride from the West Side YMCA at 5:30am to 7am!

Many of you will wonder when you get up tomorrow morning if we are riding or not due to the weather forecast! Here's the scoop. If you are leaving your garage to drive or ride to the west side YMCA and it is raining! STOP! We will not START a ride in the rain. If it's just cloudy and kinda looks like rain. COME! Over the years, I've found if you don't ride; it doesn't rain. You are welcome to call me at 434-4531, but I'll probably just tell you to come to the YMCA. If it is raining and I'm now wide awake from trying to make a decision; it's very unlikely I'll be able to go back to sleep, so let's go for a FUN RUN instead. Running is the rain it not that bad and actually kinda fun! We'll meet at the West Side YMCA at 5:30am for a nice run to chat and still get a good workout.

LADIES NEIGHBORHOOD NETWORK!

I'm still working on the neighborhood network and I'd like to hear from more of you to make the list as complete as possible. Just give me your neighborhood and stay on the list. Give me more names to add to the list. Really, let's try it! We have been having great early Wednesday morning rides (two actually) and spontaneously had an early Sunday morning ride, so I know it works.

Here is great training session planned by my niece Ashley that you can join on the east side of Green Bay this Saturday!

Here is her ride and swim training info along with how to contact her:

Hey Ladies!

How about another ride and swim this Saturday June 20th. Meeting at my place: 1004 Clement Street @ 7:00 am. Meeting place is subject to change depending on number of riders. We will ride out to Bay Shore Park (approx. 13 miles), swim for as long as we want and then ride back a different route making it about a 30-35 mile round trip ride. Carry a small backpack with your wetsuit, aqua socks/sandals, small towel and cap and goggles. Remember, everything you bring will be on your back the whole ride. Of course, don't forget plenty H20. Please let me know if you will be joining, so I can get a count of how many to expect. Deb, could you please forward this to the ladies that ride Wed mornings! Thanks! Also, don't forget that there is a ride Wednesday mornings leaving from the West side YMCA at 5:30-7:00 am. It was a blast last week! Any more questions about this ride contact dernst@new.rr.com. Hope to see you all Saturday Morning!!!
