Derek, street parking is free on the weekend. Unless there is an event going on the university rec center garage should be free to park in as well (the entrance is off Chester ave just west of the I90 ramps). If the garage is not free that day, an attendant will be on duty to collect money when you enter and it will be a flat all day rate.
I have been to morning swimming events there in the past where I got to the garage before the attendant was on duty to charge for an afternoon event, so I got to park for free anyway.

Reminder the CTC swim challenge clinic is tomorrow at 9:30 at CSU. Please arrive with enough time to register and get changed and be on deck by 9:15 for a 9:30 start. Please bring any swim gear you usually swim with. CSU as some extra kick boards and pull bouys if needed. If you don't have fins don't worry about it, all sets with fins are optional.
If you have any last minute questions or are lost in the morning please feel free to call me at 330-620-2541

A very big thank you to Danielle and her support crew for organizing and executing the event! You guys had a great turn out! You should feel proud ... and I'm wondering why I thought I'd tackle 100 x 100 yds??? My body is VERY angry at me and punishing me for the punishment it got this morning  I think this might have been the hardest thing I've ever done. I'm paying for that now!!  Oh well, I'm sure this is just a glimpse of the post-race joy that comes with and Ironman, and I've chosen that too. Regardless, THANK YOU for your support!!! You guys (CTC) have really been giving us SO MANY opportunities to meet others, experience new things, push ourselves beyond our limits ... Your commitment to CTC is really quite amazing! And we are all thankful to have these experiences and people that step up to put them together. You guys rock!!! |

I had a really great time on Sunday and I am totally wishing I had tried the 100x100s. Next year . . .

I thought I had the 36-week pregnant division all sown up, but then Bridget edged me out at the end. ; ) It is amazing that I can be so proud of finishing a distance that would have been a typical workout 8 months ago.
Thanks to all the volunteers and to Danielle and Caroline for setting it up!

When I went to swim this morning, I discovered my water bottle was missing from my locker. I suspect I left it on the food table. Did anyone find an unclaimed CTC water bottle on Sunday?
