Subject: RE: Tri clubs near Lehigh Valley? do me a favor and send me an email, [email protected] i'm from east stroudsburg, and i train twice a week with a good friend who's completed two ironmans and won several other triathlons in his AG (he's 48). On the weekends during the spring summer we usually ride, run, swim, or brick with a few of his friends (a group of 5 of them) in the lehigh valley area who are quite seasoned triathletes. I was quite new to triathlons after being a cyclist for some years, and they showed me the ropes and really helped me out with my swim and run, only in return for me spanking them on the bike. if you'd like to join us in the spring or summer to train, we'd be more than happy to have you come out...they are all super nice guys and gals. And, like most triathletes, are quick to help the newcomers and help them have fun while being fast. If it wasnt for them, i think i'd never have started having fun doing tri's after cycling for so long. shoot me an email if you want me to contact you when we get something together in the early spring -dan edit: if you arent yet comfortable with hooking up with a group, let me know and I'll train with you. I'm not by any means an expert swimmer, but i went through the same "freak out" in my first OWS and it always helps to have someone else there. i dont get back from college until the beginning of june (i'm in philly now), and thats peak cycling season, but during some of my weekends off i'd love to help you out.
