Race Reimbursement

2010-01-06T20:52:00.000-08:00

Greetings, as discussed during our last meeting. Reimbursements will be issued to members that register and pay for races out of pocket. You must ensure that you register at the lowest price point and that Bob receives your registration confirmation and race results. Please keep in mind that Bob has the final say on all reimbursement so, work it out with him as so as the situation arises.

Thanks

Chester

1. Uniform Meeting

2. Attached are .jpg examples of the uniform

-----------------------------------------------

There will be an additional meeting this month so we can get the uniform order confirmed and sent to the company.

Date: January 7, 2010 (Thursday)

Time: 1200 - 1245

Location: Semper Fit Center (Grass area shelter "K") Method of Payment: Cash is preferable. The prices would be $44.50 for one piece suits, $23.50 for tops, $25 for bottoms, and $12.00 for arm warmers.

You will need to have the 50% deposit, uniform style and size ready for Georgi at that time. Remember we will need a minimum of 7 per uniform style to make the order. Steve will announce and additional meeting at a later date. We need as much participation as possible to this meeting. Right now I only have

7 people. Although that would meet our minimum number, I am hoping there is more than 7 people to represent our club. There are a few people not presently here. We can do an initial order after they get back, or if they have a way to get the money to us, we can add them to this order.

Blog: http://miramaresc.blogspot.com/

-----------------
1. Last meeting (October Run clinic)

Attendees: Frank Calderon, Michael Ludwig, Harry Constant, Bryan Cox, Ronald Netemeyer, Mollie Cook

The topics discussed were, bike to run transitions, goal cycling & running RPMs, Seven Elements of Athletic Movement, running drills, racing strategies, and all the athletes had their running form analyzed.

7 things I did to help my running and keep me from getting injured (bad knees, hamstrings, Morton's Neuroma, Plantar Facitits, heel spurs, etc...):

1. I got a running coach
2. Stopped running in "training shoes" I only run in light-weight racing flats
3. Barefoot running on grass
4. Wear Crocs when I'm not running
5. Adopted the Pose running philosophy
6. Mouthwash before running
7. Lost weight

This is my first triathlon season in 24 years that I have not ended the year carrying any running injuries.

-----------------
2. Next meeting (new meeting time)

We are going back to the original times. I received a lot of good feedback that the morning times are difficult with so many triathlete (parents) unable to attend the morning meetings because of responsibilities such as dropping off children to school and having to lead unit PT sessions. We will go back to Thursdays at 1200 noon.

Date: November 19 (Thursday)
Time: 1200-1245
Location: Semper Fit Center "New Gym"
Bldg: 2002
Topic: What ESC membership means, financing for 2010 races.
Details: Attending meetings and contributing to the club's growth will be the main criteria for deciding who get their races paid for by MCCS in 2010. There will no longer be financing for "virtual" membership or for members that consistently do not attend meetings.
Please bring a copy of Race Place magazine so we can decide what races we will target for financing.

-----------------
3. Pools available during the fall

Balboa Pool Naval Hospital (pristine 25 meter pool) Pool Hours Monday - Friday: 0530 - 0830 / 1000 - 1900 Saturday - Sunday: 1230 - 1630 Most Holidays: 1230 - 1630

Naval Base Pt Loma & MCAS Miramar
(please see attached)

Please note that this year there are pools available to military for FREE on Saturday and/or Sunday. No excuses, right?

Please print off and hang on your command's message board. Perhaps this can combine with your example to motivate the young Marines to get out and enjoy the same fitness that you have.

-----------------
4. Miramar cyclist report

Good morning Miramar cyclists!
Come on out for some "spooky" riding as we head into the Fall. A number of us have been traveling, sick, or out of pocket for the past few weeks so we'll keep it fairly easy today. I am going to clean up the e-mail list so, if you DO WANT TO STAY ON IT please email me, otherwise I will delete your email address from the list to prevent you from receiving unnecessary email.

Time: Meet at ~1130, Rolling at 1135 sharp
Location: Meet at flagpole in front of Bldg 7515 on Mainside Miramar.
On Silva Road near the Annex Gas Station (gas station closest to flight line).

Route: East Miramar by way of flight line access or Kearny Villa Road (participants decide)
Distance: 15-21 miles
Workout/Pace: Moderate ride out to East Miramar. Steady or hard ride on East Miramar (route may vary). Possibly include a few intervals on East Miramar.
