Well. It's still here and so are we.
...
The new name for the
"No Swag Time Trials" is now...
The "Ron Crosby just keep moving Time Trials".
...
2023 time trial dates are...
...
June 3 @ 10AM
...
The fall time trial date will be posted soon.
...
...
The time trial protocols are as follows;
...
... USA Triathlon Drafting rules will be in effect. 3 bike lengths apart and once you enter the draft zone you must complete your pass. Otherwise you're cheating in more ways than drafting.
... Draft Zone. I could ride my Moto and check like I do at a sanctioned triathlon. I'm not going to do that. This is a FUN event. There comes a point where a person should respect themselves and others.
... Awards. The overall male and female winners may grab their prize from the box.
So a time trial is a social distance event anyway. We just need to be careful about using good hygiene before and after the race. Corona 19 whatever is still among us.

Hey Triathletes. If you haven't already, it's time to get out of your road bike bubble and broaden your bike horizons. And off road cycling will improve your bike handling skills too. Check out "Mountain Biking" or "Gravel Biking" events. Do a search and you would be surprised at how many are out there. And IMHO, you do not need a "gravel" bike to do a gravel bike event. If you have a decent Mountain Bike it will do just fine if not better with the fatter tires. And if needed, you can add a seat post rack or a couple more bottle cages. It's what I do and it's works great. If you need assistance, I'm here for you as a bike tech too. Look over my Quads of Fire bike tech page on this site.

A day in SMS history...
IronMan 70.3 Hawaii aka Ironman Honu
Epic day on the Kona Coast and the IM Honu.
June 2, 2012. It is on the famously
difficult end of the IronMan Hawaii World Championship bike course. The winds
can be more difficult there too.
I raced to my fitness on a beautiful but difficult course under more difficult than normal conditions. My training for this course was close to my full Ironman training. I needed every minute of it. I finished.
And now I know how to help you finish it too.
Lo aloha la ea (Keep your love)

You will receive a SMS training T, training log (both paper and online) and copies of various multisport publications so you will know "how and why" you are being coached.
You will be advised and coached not only on the physical "out the door and on the road or in the water" training but... nutrition, hydration, sports psychology, fatigue and recovery, bike fit and related technical issues. I received my multisport coaching training by noted multisport professionals in a USATriathlon Training Clinic held in New Orleans, La. And, most important, you will receive the personal coaching experience that you are seeking and that you deserve!
Contact us to discuss your needs and goals and we will set up a program for you based on your fitness and experience. Rates will vary but are reasonable and customary.
