Introduction

 

April was the start to the Spring Triathlon Season and HRTC represented well at both IMTX 70.3 and IMTX! The local races get started this weekend! Make sure you check out your club discounts as you sign-up!

Thank you to all the volunteers at IMTX! The HRTC volunteers were fantastic again this year and really make for a smooth transition for the athletes.

Congratulations to our team athletes on their IM finish! Stuart Muirhead, Carol Wooldridge and Amy Wang! Congratulations to all our other members that were racing too!

I want to also give a shout out to a few other HRTC racers this year! Congrats to Charles Coffman (IM 70.3 Panama), Claudio Bravo (IM 70.3 Pucon), and Ivan Ramirez (IM 70.3 Puerto Rico).

This month we will have a run and social at Fleet Feet on the 15th of May. We will have a drawing for the Kerrville Triathlon Festival. Don't forget, if you volunteered or raced for HRTC you must email president@houstonracing.com to let me know you are interested in the extra raffle tickets! See details below.

Check out the video of the April Splash n Dash! Thanks Peter Brohn for pulling it together!

Best wishes

Greg Malmgren - President
