Hey All,

Tenille Hoogland finished 4th pro (woman) in yesterday's Eagleman 70.3. She wrote a short simple little article on "Balance" that might help out some folks.

Granted she doesn't have a full-time non-triathlon job and 3 kids, but you may find your own golden nugget in there.

Happy Training ALL !!!!

We are introducing a new form of endurance races. Our concept is to layout a series of races courses that athletes run on their own, on the day of their choice. The athletes then submit their results to a database at www.ViralRacing.com where they are ranked for their Race. Athletes that submit GPS substantiation for their performance get ranked ahead of non-substantiated submissions. [b]http://ViralRacing.com[/b]

We have started a new coaching company focusing on offering affordable training plans and was keen to see what you are all training for this year?

I look forward to hearing from you and give us a shout if we can help with your training.

Just wondering if anybody knows if theres is a best position for the cleat on cycling shoes? Is there a difference between triathlon and road cycling? I've heard many things. Where do you have yours?

I'm thinking about doing my first Xterra. I'm a fairly seasoned triathlete in the normal sense, with maybe 15 or so races under my belt. I'm working with a lot of mountain cyclists who are well on their way into talking me into doing an xterra. Any advice from anyone who has done xterras or kinda knows whats going on? Anything different / new I need to think about? I have a very full race calendar for the year, but I'm pretty sure I can stuff one more tri in.
Thanks!
