Regular  61  Memphis, TN |  Subject: Back on track in TN!Hello All, Have been lurking for some time hoping that it motivates me to get back on track. I have been doing tri's for about 3 years and took off last year due to life getting in the way (new house, job.....blah, blah blah) Looking forward to racing again. Going to start out with a Du and then Memphis in May and after that not quite sure. Look foward to talking with everyone!! Jim |

Not too many Tennesseans on this forum. I am one and there are a couple more. Post early and post often.

Extreme Veteran 463 Fort Worth, TX | Subject: RE: Back on track in TN! I thought I was the only one trying to get back on track  Good luck. Stay focused. Had posted something similar " "Three weeks of juggling too many things and not much of anything to log. Yuk! Soccer and track overlapped. The best part about it was seeing my little one finish off his basketball season on a good note. So here we go again. Soccer has wound down other than playoffs as I pretty much enjoy watching the varsity play with the jv done. I can now concentrate on track and "other". Teaching is going well. However, having to continually keep kids motivated is just draining. Anyhow, hope to get back at it. Not sure how a May short sprint will be now??? Hmmm... Still doable? Stay tuned!" |

Master 1558  Pensacola, Fl | Subject: RE: Back on track in TN! Glad to have you back at it and also glad to have you here at BT. I am originally from Tennessee and will be transferring back to Memphis in April. I look forward to meeting you. Check out the State listings on the forums page (you may have to expand the page) and you will see that quite a few of us are doing the Memphis in May OLY. I also will try to host something at my house that weekend or set up a BT gathering at the race site during packet pick up. Also you will see a few other Memphis area BTers, so send us a question if you have one! |

Regular 61 Memphis, TN | Subject: RE: Back on track in TN! Thanks everyone for the kind words. I will be doing Memphis in May so hopefully will get to meet some of you. I think I spoke too soon on the nice weather though........We had 5 inches yesterday and it is still snowing!!!!!! Yikes! |

| Memphis, Tn | Subject: RE: Back on track in TN! Welcome back. I agree about the snow, put a huge dampener on training. Does shoveling snow count as working out? |

Veteran 200 Charleston, SC | Subject: RE: Back on track in TN! Aloha Jim.
My wife and I moved to Hawaii from Memphis 3 years ago, in-laws live in Collierville. We'd like to get back for the Memphis In May..... but with 2 kids, 2 dogs, etc, you know the rest of the story. Maybe next year. Best of luck this year!! Mark |

Regular 61 Memphis, TN | Subject: RE: Back on track in TN! Mark, Thanks! We wEre going to build in Collierville, but choose Oakland instead. Its quieter and more room to ride. I am hoping to be in that part of the world come October. I will let you know April 15th (IM LOTTERY!!!!) |

| 3 | Subject: RE: Back on track in TN! Hi y'all! This is my first post here....Thought I'd start with this thread because I was born in Memphis and raised in Nashville, then lived four more years in Memphis before beginning a westward journey....One of our parting jestures before moving was to run the Memphis in May 10K! That was back in.....gosh, back in 1989! I've been in Colorado for 10 years and am training for my first tri! Yippee!....So far, so good.... Anyway, I remember so many good times down on the riverfront in Memphis - the barbeque festival (Corky's is my fav!) and Memphis in May (what's the honorary country this year, btw?).... Although Colorado is absolutely beautiful, Tennessee will always feel like home....So I hope y'all will keep this thread going about all the great things happening there!....I've gone home often to run races...including the country music marathon a few years ago....It was a blast.... I've been a runner forever....so triathoning is a new adventure - especially the swimming! Yikes!....My training partner and I managed to finish 500 meters non-stop this week....My fear of drowning is waning! LOL! Glad to have a place to chat and glean helpful info.... Rhonda (g.r.i.t.s. - "girl raised in the south" - for those of you who don't have a Cracker Barrel gift shop around  ) |
