I’ve been meaning to give a shout out to the folks at Trakkers and Rev3Tri, and their call for volunteers is the perfect opportunity.
The Rev3Tri Quassy Half on Sunday, June 6th, is looking for volunteers. If you live anywhere near there, it’s a great opportunity to see a superb race in action, and meet some pro triathletes. And they are offering some free schwag and discounts to boot! Click here for more information: http://rev3tri.com/!/volunteer/index.htm
Some of you may know I was on Team Trakkers last year. It was a great experience to be part of a racing team, and super great to take part in the Inaugural Revolution 3 Triathlon race in Quassy, CT.
I backed out of Team Trakkers this year because I did not think I could contribute to the team with my full time work schedule. That was a good call, because I am really struggling. I dearly miss my Trakkers Teammates, tho 🙁
I so wish I was doing that race again this year. I got to meet my hero, Natasha Badman. And I loved the crystal clear bubbly water. I loved the hills on the bike. I did not like the hills on the run so much, but they taught me alot about mental toughness. That lesson paid big dividends in my Ironman race, later that year. Someday I will go back and conquer those Quassy hills again. Gosh, I am getting all teary eyed just remembering that race.

I had already signed up to volunteer. I just started training so I'm not ready to run such a long race, but I'll be there supporting a couple of friends! Too bad you won't be coming this year, it would have been nice to meet you. Maybe next year!!
Oh I wish one of those events were near me, it sounds like a lot of fun!! I was supposed to volunteer at a tri this weekend and then they told me they didn't need me. What race can't use a few extra volunteers?! :(
We miss you too Carol!
