2019 70.3 Connecticut Kick Off Thread
Welcome to your official 2019 race thread! This will be home for you and your fellow teammates who are competing (and have competed) to train, learn and share with one another.
You’ll find lots of historical information here in this forum, and you can search above or use the main forum page. But it’s just as important to add your information from this year -- your workouts, volume weekends, race plans, highs and lows...it’s all here.
Race Captain - We Need One
Ideally your event has a race captain to lead by sharing their training and generally being a really awesome, supportive person online. If you have one, their name is ^above^ … If not, you can request to become the Race Captain via email here (just remember to tell us the race you want to lead). You’ll get a free month of EN membership and some other cool stuff as our way of saying thanks.
We have a basic schedule to support the Race Captain, you can view it here and it’s not a ton of work. Even if you don’t have a race captain, you can all use that schedule to make sure You are connecting around the critical parts of your season.
Looking for Your Fellow Racers?
Sometimes the hardest part of getting the community around a race started is finding your fellow racers! You can do that via our Race Database (online here, password is WORKWORKS) where you can search by race name such as “Placid,” etc. Once you have a list of names, you can use the “@” sign to tag them here in this thread (so they are notified) or you can send them a private message via the Forums as well.
GroupMe Chat
If you are looking for your Race GroupMe, you can search our official GroupMe page online here. Can’t find the GroupMe because There isn’t one for your race? You can request we make one for you via email here.
Have Questions or Need Help?
No worries, we’re here to help! You can send us an email right here so we can help you out. Please be sure to reference your race forum and give as much detail as possible.

I’m signed up. Who else is out there?
Wait a MINUTE!!! There is a CT 70.3?? I am not sure if this is super cool or super lame?
@Patrick Large , its the rev3 quassy, beast of a course, seriously!
@Patrick Large formally known as Rev3Quassy.
Is anyone else doing this race?
@Andrew Lustigman - pretty sure that @Brad Marcus is doing it, you should have his email from past sends from me. If not, ping me & I'll connect you two. If you want to do a course recon ride, I might be able to in the next few weeks, but i am NOT doing this race.
@Andrew Lustigman Yes, I am racing this one! Are you local? I’m 40 mins away from Quassy. I’ve raced this 2x a few years back. Hoping to get up there over the next couple of weeks to ride the bike course. Let me know if you have any interest!
