Help spread he word and get lots of people out to run and slip and slide! All proceeds go to the CSI triathlon club, come help us raise some much needed cash for the next years group of student triathletes at CSI.

Good luck on finals this week. Let me know if you want to do a group run or ride :-)

We will be hosting the Highland Games 5k on April 25th. I need some people to please come help out at 9am to set up provide support on the course. We should be done by 11. All money goes to the Club for travel this summer and next fall. Who can come help out?

Okay All,
Hope your spring break is going well. We will be meeting on Tuesday, March 31st @ 12:30pm. We will be putting candy in the eggs and putting the basket together then. The Easter Egg Hunt is April 3 at 4pm. We will talk about setting up for our both and what time I need people to be there to help.
I have the bucket and sand toys already with our name on it.
We need goggles for little kids 0-2 years old
Little swimmers
Arm Floaties
Water toys
If you guys will post on here who got what, then we can avoid everyone buying the same thing. And if you find something different then whats written then that would be great.
Thanks so much and see you guys next Tuesday, March 31st at 12:30 in front of Scott's Office.

The Easter eggs are in and I need people to bring candy. The Easter egg hunt is April 3rd on CSI campus. We have the age group 0-2 years of age. I need people to bring swimming stuff for a basket we will be donating. I have a sand bucket that will serve as our basket. So if I could have people bring swimming stuff (i.e. Arm floaties, water toys etc.) that would be great. I also need more than five people to show up and help with our booth.

Okay everyone. There will be a triathlon meeting Tuesday March 10th at 12:30 pm in front of Scott's office. We have a couple events we need to go over. Hope to see you all there.

Everyone that went to Vegas who has not paid for the warm-up needs to get with me. ASAP. If I do not have your payment by the second week of March, I will add it to your CSI account and collect it that way!!!

We need volunteers on Thursday February 19th to help take out an old wood exercise station on the fitness trail. We have a new one to put in its place. Anyone open on Thursday for some deconstruction.

Cool Down

Running plan for 9/23/14

GEAR SHIFTER In this workout, alternate between your easy, medium, and fast paces. Warm up with three to five minutes of walking. Then ramp up to your easy pace (see below) and hold it for two to three minutes. Then shift into your medium pace and sustain it for one minute. Then shift into the fast pace for 30 seconds. Repeat the cycle two or three times. Walk for five minutes to cool down. Use this guide to find each gear:

• EASY: Conversational pace; a pace where you could chat with a friend running alongside you. This is a rhythm that feels like you could maintain it all day long if you had to.

• MEDIUM: This should be faster than your easy pace, but you shouldn’t feel like you’re speeding. You would prefer not to hold a full conversation, but if someone asked you a question, you could answer in two- or three-word sentences.

• FAST: Quicker than your medium pace. In this gear you should be able to say one or two words but, if someone asked you a question, it would make you mad because you wouldn’t want to expend the energy to answer them. Don’t sprint all-out or push to the point of pain, or where you feel you’re going to pull something. You should feel like “I’m okay, I just don’t want to do this for very long.”

WHAT IT DOES: This workout will elevate your heart rate, boost your fitness and calorie burn, and keep you from falling into a rut with the same easy pace. “It makes running fun, ups the intensity, and recruits different muscle fibers,” “It’s like adding spice to a recipe.” By getting used to what different paces feel like, you can get more benefits out of all your workouts going forward, whether you’re doing a recovery run or racing in your first 5-K. Why is that important? “If you’re aware of your running pace, you can control your effort based on the distance or the purpose of the workout or in the race,” What’s more, it can help you stay injury-free. If you run the same pace all the time, you recruit the same muscle fibers, in the exact same way over and over. “If you mix up your paces, you recruit different muscle fibers, and some different muscles,” says Paul. “You get more balanced out.”

Get out and RUN!! Dont forget to come see me for your running Log.

Cool news on Pumpkin man. Come see me to fill out the final paperwork.

Hello all,
We started the meeting off with an introduction of our coaches, Scott Rogers and John Twiss. They are both active in all aspect of triathlons. If you haven't met them yet I would strongly suggest stopping by and introducing yourselves. They are funny guys and will be able to answer any questions you have. They are both located in the student rec center (SRC). Scott Roger is in the front of the building and John Twiss is more towards the basketball court next to the spinning room.
If you want to compete in nationals for CSI, you must be a full-time student. Full-time means 12 credits or more. Nationals are in Arizona this year and usually the first week in April, that might change. You will be competing against most schools in the U.S., it is totally exciting and we had a blast last year. One thing that changed this year is the amount of people we can take. We were only allowed 7 last year and now we can take as many people who want to go. We will have to fund raise to get enough money to go. We have fund raising packet already made for sponsorship, and will be handing those out at our .next meeting. I’m not sure on the date for the next meeting, but hopefully give everyone enough notice.
Scott or will be emailing everyone a template of a running log. This so you can track your running and see how far you have progressed and to total your miles by the end of school year. We are using the "U.S Road Running" program to help jump start our training. If you go on to their website you will be able to see the races we will be entering. There are hundreds and we will have to decide quickly on some of them.( www.usroadrunning.com ) we are doing a Ninja race and the Halloween race. But if you see one please let Scott know that way it will be brought up to everyone and we all will most likely run it. If you don't want to run it then you don't have too. That is the one thing Scott wanted to make clear is that if you don't want to do the sport that is ok. You only want to run then com running with us. That goes with the swimming and the biking as well. We just want people to join so that we aren't starring at the same five people day in and day out. We have some people who just wants to do this club to lose weight and get into shape. And Scott and John are fine with it and enjoy teaching everyone who wants to learn and train.
We will be posting options on Facebook of times for swimming, biking, and running practice. There will be three options and would like people to comment on which options you like the best, second best , and third. Just go on Facebook and like the page and you should get updates on practice. The page is "college of southern Idaho triathlon".

Fundraiser coming up is the "miles for smile" October 11th 8:00 am


Thanks again and if you have any questions please call or email Scott or myself.
Sincerely,
Janel Joy

There will be an information meeting on Thursday 4th at 5:00pm in the gym of the recreation building. This is the smaller gym, not the CSI basketball court. I know this is short notice and if you cannot make it please email or call Scott Roger or myself. We are excited about starting our running program that we would like to implement into our training. With the amount of interest we received, this is going to be a great season. We will be going over races and trying to get some spinning and swimming practice in. Starting now will allow us to have a fighting chance at nationals in Arizona this April. Again this is going to be a great year and I hope all of you can make it to the meeting.
Thank you,
Janel Joy
