Sunday
Swimmers,
The dare2tri organization has 12 athletes racing at Pleasant Prairie this Sunday. They have 2
athletes doing the Olympic distance race, 7 doing the sprint race and 3
doing the duathlon. They are looking for a few more handlers who can hand the
athletes their legs and crutches etc. when they get out of the water or
help them get ready for bike to run etc. This role does not require you
to do any portion of the race with your athlete.
They also need a few
guides for our wheelchair athletes. This role will require you to bike
with your athlete when they bike and bike with them while they run. You
do not need to swim with them. You will need to bring your own bike
for this.
The Olympic and
Sprint will start for our athletes at 6:30 AM and then the duathlon will
start around 7:00ish. They are asking handlers to be there around 5:45 if you
are helping a Olympic or Sprint triathlete and around 6:30 AM if you are helping a
duathlete.
Please contact Keri Schindler (KSchindler@glasa.org) if you are interested in any of these
roles.
Thanks so much!

Swim Across America (SAA) is a non-competitive charity swim held on the 1st Saturday in August (August 4th), which benefits the Rush University Mediacal Center.
Participants have the choice of swimming a 1/2-mile, 1-mile, 1.5-mile or 3-mile distance. The 1/2-mile and 1-mile distances are along an out-and-back course. The 1.5-mile and 3-mile distances are along the same triangular course that Big Shoulders utilizes. The 1.5-mile distance is a single lap around the triangular course while the 3-mile distance is two laps around the triangular course.
In order to participate, each swimmer/member of the team must raise $500. In 2011, our team raised over $4,700. With other teams and swimmers the Chicago event was able to raise more than $160,000 for the Cardinal Bernardin Cancer Center at Loyola University Medical Center.
Please consider joining the team or supporting a swimmer.
