Smile Train Tri a success!!

I had a great time at the tri Sunday. The event director, Rebecca Warriner, and the Finish Strong Series were more than hospitable! I was given a valuable window of time prior to the race to share and demo TI swimming. There were approximately 125 triathletes in attendance, which was awesome.

After the clinic, or what I termed a TI "booster," I set up a table near the finish line w/ fliers, business cards, DVD's, etc... I was able to talk to a multitude of athletes, and hopefully get most of them to join the evolution of TI swimming! My wife, kids, and of course, puppy dog, were there to assist and help me look good. I apparently needed help w/ how I looked, since they told me to take off my black socks immediately!!! Yikes, the hip thing isn't working well :-)

For anyone interested, I will begin to seek more private lessons during the daytime starting the week of July 6th. Ideally, teaching at Rex Wellness in Wakefied is great, but I am available to meet you for lessons at another facility. Also, please consider registering for the first Easy Freestyle Workshop that Finish Strong and myself are sponsoring, on July 11 from 1-4 pm at Gypsy Divers. You can register at, www.fsseries.com

Swimming for life, Brian
