The 5th Annual Davis Family YMCA Sprint Tri

    The 5th annual Davis Family YMCA Sprint Triathlon was held this past Sunday May 17th. This event really brings our club together focusing on our mission: "increasing the number and the quality of racing options in our area"  The event was again directed by SVTC members (Co-Race directors Robin Turner & Margo Jacobs), in addition a strong contingent of members volunteered as well as participated.

The 1st Annual Hotdog mile   

   The 1st race of the 2009 season is in the books, and although this was a tune-up event, you had to be "hungry" to do well. SVTC members and family/friends showed up to the Mineral Ridge H.S. track, this past Sunday for a unique event. The first ever SVTC Hotdog mile. Competitors were required to consume 1 hotdog and bun (condiments optional) prior to each of 4 laps. The event ended when runners successfully completed all 4 laps and swallowed the last of the 4 dogs. Many different techniques were used in this very strategic race. Everything from eating fast then running, to eating and running at the same time, to using your cheeks like saddlebags. In the end everyone was smiling and claimed to have had fun. Although I heard no mention of going out to breakfast after this run.
