Keep on moving don't stop...

Here’s a photo from HP09’s last Sprint @ Culpeper. This Sunday's Iron Girl marks the last race that this HP has registered for this season and I'm not going to lie to you, I'm frightened. What ever does a HP do with all this free time? Does one succumb to inertia and continue to train aimlessly? Or do we give up, get off the swim/bike/run circuit and take up knitting/competitive drinking? In an effort to prolong the summer tri season the following suggestions are offered up in the hopes that there other HP’s out there in a similar predicament looking to get in on a sprint or relay.

The Inaugural Nation's Triathlon – Saturday 9/16
http://www.thenationstriathlon.com/
-A 1.5k swim with the Washington Monument as the site line, a 32k two loop bike course around Rock Creek Park into downtown Washington, DC and around Pennsylvania Avenue, and a 10k run past the Kennedy Center, Lincoln Memorial, Jefferson Memorial and Tidal basin. The finish line is spectacular on the grounds of, and at the foot of, the Washington Monument. Be a part of triathlon history!

The General Smallwood Triathlon – Saturday 9/30
http://www.set-upinc.com/rp5/gsmallwoodsprint/gsmallwoodsprint.shtml
-This one is listed on the blog, a nice manageable (moderately difficult) Sprint not too far from DC. We have to register by THIS FRIDAY 9/25!
Prices - Individual: 80$, Relay: $110

Ok, there are certainly many more events in Sept. and Oct. but this is good for now. So, anyone interested in some mutual motivation?
