Great Day, Great Night

Hello to all you hang over heads. Here I am, at work, just after 9 o clock on Sunday morning and some of ye lot are probably still drinking. Just to say that it was another excellent performance by the club. Thanks to the 'Big Day Out' committee. It was brilliant to see a lot of our unsung heroes, the very important contingent - our families, partaking in and enjoying themselves. And last night again, they were all out in full force. I've said it before and I'll say it again, we are not just a bunch of people who happen to be in the same club. It was a get-together amongst FRIENDS and that is why it works so well. Looking forward to next season, but I can say, that I'm honestly looking forward to the 'REST' more!! See ye all soon.

Adventure Racing

Paaaatrick, I'd say Margot might be interested. Myself, Finn, Maeve and Trish have already committed to a training weekend but hopefully I'll be free for the next one. Sinead.

Tired of triathlons, then try Adventure Racing!

Hi Lads,

I'm trying to put a team together for an adventure race on the 20th
October. Check out http://www.adventureireland.co.uk/main.html I have a few interested people, like Willie, Cornelius and Kevin but we're short
a few ladies!! In order to compete we need to have mixed teams. So if there is anyone interested in the race let me know. If we have a good few interested we may be able to put two teams together. Please let me know by the weekend as I need to enter the team or teams.

Duathlon

Hi Lads,

Really enjoyed the evening, sorry had to run off but thanks to everyone
for great race. Roll on next year!

Thanks Kevin and Maeve

Thanks to the 'terrible two' for taking all the hours out to read my IMUK report! I will be reading your report Kevin for 2009. If anyone out there is just thinking about doing an Ironman race, then you can do it. Anyway the duathlon was brillian yesterday. Tiernan said his favourite part was at the finish when he got his 'Golden medal'. Well done to everyone involved. When is the next one?

ATHLETE AND POET

Wow Sinead, is there no end to your talents? I felt like I was there with you as I read your last installment. It had all the ingredients of a best seller. The horror of anticipation, the excitement, the drama, the emotion and finally the romance, as you fell into your lover’s arms.  I can’t wait for Ironman Austria 2009 – but only to read all about it!  Kevin

Heart Rate Training

This message is for those of you who are prone to a bit of 'sneaky' training, for those of you who have a heart rate monitor but only use it as a watch, for those of you who want to get the most out of every kilometer that you run. Let me know and after our last Test Tri (boo hoo), I will be able to make up a specific personalized programme that will really help with your running. After all, its not long now to the Ballycotton 10!!

Caroline Kearney Tri

Trish, Alison, Paul and Patrick were in Mullingar yesterday doing the inaugural Caroline Kearney Memorial Triathlon. Well, gang - how'd you get on? I'd love a race report from any of you for this website!

sisters in trouble

Hi lads,I think our sisters are headin down the wrong road,they need our guidance,  the tshirts proberly went to their heads???A MEETING will be called shortly to address this problem...Any ideas would be very welcome to solve this act og wrecklessness....

Just asking ...

Query from a member - Anyone doing the Dublin Half Marathon next weekend?

Willie, watch out for Maeve. She's after drinking her teams winnings already and now she's out for the rest. She says its good for sore muscles, but I'm not sure myself. I think Wearen is involved as well.

Overheard in Portlaoise...

I overheard a group of people discussing the table quiz in Shaws today.  They were still laughing and discussing questions and generally saying what a great night it was.  As I joined in the conversation I made sure to rub in the fact that I was on the winning team.  None of these people are related to any club member as far as I know…little do they know we are going to spend the money on beer!  Hope the word doesn’t get out…Maeve

TABLE QUIZ FUNDS

Karl,
will any of the funds be used to re-stock the fridges of beer in the Bracken and Wearen household over the weekend of 20 + 21 October?

A great night indeed...

Yeah, Taco - what a great night!

Its a powerful thing to see so many people gathered together for one cause!

We had just about twice the number of people there on Thursday as we had last year, and while we are still counting the loose change, I think we'll find we more than doubled the amount raised last year. And if you think that is exciting, just wait til you see how we use it over Winter and into 2008.

FULL HOUSE

No, we didn't play poker, but we did have a full house at the table quiz.
It was a great evening and I got some answers correct.
I would like to thank all involved in organising the event, and all the effort of the people on the night. ( too many to name individually ) .
Super night.
Thanks

Party

Karl, you must be joking!  I will be bringing all the beer from the fridge for Sinead and me to consume.  Beer is really good for sore muscles.

Maeve 

CALLING ALL BROTHERS

2-day bender starting in Kevins House, 21-22 October. When we drink it dry, we'll cycle on over to Terry. Other venues to be confirmed.

CALLING ALL SISTERS

Hi girls, you can count me in.  Where do I sign up?  A weekend away from Kevin and the Kids - I cant wait!

Maeve

Calling All Sisters

Girls,
I am definitely up for the training weekend and being a total girl, I can't wait to show off our unique 'Sisters of Trilogy' T-shirts. Trish and Alison said the last one was great. So, the question is, who is in?
PS: Willie, thanks for the comment. Hopefully by the end of the report, you will have committed to Austria 2009. Bring it on.

The longest race

Hi sinead,just like to say what a read,cant wait for the next chapter..but have to say im starting to hate you for the seeds you are sewing....dont know if i realy realy should read on ??????? 

Race place available for Caroline Kearney Tri

Clive from Carlow can't race in Mullingar this Saturday and is offering up his place. The Caroline Kearney Triathlon is Olympic Distance, and there are a few Trilogy members taking part. If you haven't registered and would like to race, let Clive know - or if you don't have details for Clive, cotact Karl or leave a message here and I'll get them to you.

Almost Tempted ...

Am tempted to say yes Trish, but I am officially meant to be off training now for a few rest weeks! Am sure there are others here who'll head out with you - the weather would seem too good to waste!

Sun Cycle

Have we any takers on a cycle this Sunday - I believe the weather is to be good - yes Alan I got vey wet last Sunday.

Rain and More Chat

Sorry Trish, Its half past ten and I looked out the window and saw rain, so I’m
going to be a big sissy and decline the cycle today !

On the chat front, Karl, you might put a reminder on the right hand frame something along the lines “To Chat its easy, just send an e-mail to XXX.trilogy@blogger.com – XXX is the bit you decide when you set up for the first time - Don’t forget to fill in the Subject line”.

This would be useful to Jog the memory about the e-mail address to use. Normally I have to go and look itup and by the time I have found it again I have forgotton what I was going to say !

Cycle

Anyone interested in a cycle at 11 am tomorrow?
