Hello All, I have been selected as an XTERRA Ambassador for the coming season and I am working with some great folks on having a free informational session about XTERRA. All are welcome to enjoy a great evening with a multisport focus. We will also be starting an email list for some free clinics and informational sessions specific to the XTERRA Wild Ride and some other local events. Some of the formatting didn't come through, so I have the information below and pasted the link to google docs below. Hope to see you there. Adam Wirth

Thanks Lori, it should be a great night. I also want to add that even if you might not do an Xterra this year, it will still be a great opportunity to come listen to a couple World Class multisport athletes. I am sure any one from tri newbies to seasoned Ironman vets will benefit from the insight Michael and Jenny can provide.

We will also be highlighting and dicussing the Xterra Trail run series, so there is plenty of good information out there. As I mentioned, the event is free and let me know if anyone has any questions. Adam

Just wanted to bump this on the forum so everyone can plan for next week. The event is next Thursday (April 23rd 6:30pm) night at Shu's Idaho Running company. It is free to attend and we will be giving away some nice shwag (we will also have beer!!!).

Jenny and Michael Tobin will be talking and answering questions about their experiences in triathlon and the multisport world. It will be a great opportunity to get some insight into their training and how to improve yours.

Michael has multiple world championships in a number of different multisport fields and Jenny has been ranked consistently in the top 10 for the global XTERRA points series. Jenny also won the Spring Sprint by over 2 minutes and finished 13th overall when included with the men.

Hope to see everyone there.

Adam
