Jul 16, 2011
TVTC Announces Partnership with On Your Mark's Tri-for-Fun Series held at Shadow Cliffs in Pleasanton! Fun training and racing events, right in our backyard!
This means great things for TVTC members! All TVTC members receive $5 discount on each of the races, and look for the TVTC bike rack at the events, and our logos on the t-shirts at the Tri for Real. We will also host a TVTC Club Day a the Tri-for Real in September, with potluck. More details to come in August.
The Tri-for-Fun series is in it's 24th year in the Tri-Valley area, and is geared towards "the every man"...the person with a job, a family, and a life. The race series is a great, low key, family friendly introduction for new to the sport athletes to the joys of triathlon and all they have to offer! And provide great training opportunities near home for any level athlete.
There is a "Tri-for-Fun" held once a month in June, July and August each summer, that is just that, for fun! At the summer races, there are no times taken, and people just get out there and enjoy. You can just go have a good time, and experience the joy of triathlon in your own backyard! September each year is the "Tri-for-Real", where times are noted, and the distances increase a little.
Many of our members have already participated in one of these family friendly, community events. TVTC will use the Tri-for-Funs as Training events, and The Tri-for-Real on September 17 will be the Coached Sprint distance for the Summer Season.
24th Annual Tri-for-Fun #2 THIS SATURDAY, July 16!!!
For those TVTC members staying in town this weekend, we encourage you to go have some local fun! Think of it as a Training Day, practicing putting it altogether. Participating in non-competitive, low key, shorter events is a great way to gain valuable race experience - what you wear, what you eat, how your nutrition changes on race day vs training days, the flow of a race, and what to expect of other racers.
Register for any of the Tri-for-Funs and the Tri for Real at http://onyourmarkevents.com/events-new.asp
If you are TVTC member, contact Coach Liz for the discount code to receive $5 off each of the Tri-for-Fun races.
Make sure to register for the Tri-for-Real on Saturday, September 17, as that will be the TVTC Club Day!
At the event, look for:
the TVTC Bike Rack!
TVTC logo on event t-shirts!
And we will have an after race booth at the August and September events this summer!

We at TVTC are very excited for our newest partnership with the Tri-for-Fun series, and know our members will benefit greatly!
Also, while on the On Your Mark website, check out the other run and bike races On Your Mark leads throughout Pleasanton and the Tri-Valley! Including a the Fast and Furious Bike Crit right on Main Street in Pleasanton the first weekend of August! Our own Coach Lael will be racing! And look for our TVTC gear in the window at The Cycle Pros on Main Street, another TVTC partner!
