Supported Oilman Bike Ride for FSC on Sunday, Oct 4
We will have a supported group ride on the Oilman HIM bike course on Sunday, October 4. Let Coach Dana know if you can attend so we can plan accordingly by emailing him at dana@coachlyons.com.
We will meet at the La Torretta Resort, the site of the Oilman HIM. Please arrive early so that you are ready to ride at 7:30am.
Parking; as you turn off of Walden Road, there is a remote parking lot immediately on your right. Please park there. Once parked, you can bike down Del Lago Blvd. We will meet in a small parking lot (please do not park here) that borders Del Lago and Balboa (the tennis courts are across the street). Look for my white Expedition with bike rack on the back. Please be at this parking lot ready to ride at 7:30am.
We will have two support vehicles on course with water and HEED electrolyte drink plus some tubes, pump, etc.. Please bring your own nutrition (we will have emergency backup nutrition for those that need it). We are planning on having only one major rest stop and that will be in Richards either at the Richards HS located on Guadalupe just north of FM149 or, if the parking lot is assessible, the shuttered country store/gas station at FM149 and Guadalupe. The support vehicles will stop at other locations along the route and you are free to stop if you need something or simply need a short rest. I have attached a copy of the race course map. I have added numbered locations where you can expect the support vehicles to be. The main SAG vehicle will not leave the FM149/Guadalupe location until all come through there. The race web site has a great interactive map that you should check out. Please be familiar with the course.
Please insure that your bike is in good shape prior to ride. And please be prepared to change your own flats. You should carry 2 tubes, at least 2 CO2 cartridges (or frame pump), tire irons and a multi tool.
All Finish Strong Coaching athletes are welcome to join us. The more the merrier on course!

Triathlon Grand Prix
Congrats to Finish Strong's Steve Hardy who finished 2nd in his AG in 1:09:53 at the Triathlon Grand Prix at MSR on September 20. And Stephen Clouthier came in 5th in his AG in 1:15:07.3. This was a double super sprint. 250 meter swim, 5 mile bike and 1.8 mile run the do it again. Steve reports, "This was a fun and I didn't know what to expect on the second swim. Here's what I learned, the first swim being so short was a nonstop mass of humanity pretty tough. Second swim was much easier. It was really cool to ride on the protected winding race course. Overall fun race and would recommend doing it next year."

Towne Lake Tri
Thirty-three Finish Strong athletes competed in the heat and humidity at Towne Lake Tri on Labor Day, Monday, September 7. 18 in the Olympic distance race and 15 in the sprint race. Lots of family and friends came out to support the team. Many exception performances, I will name a few but apologize for not listing everyone's back story.
Special recognition to Ira and Lola who competed together in the Para athletes category. Big comeback race for Lola who recovered from a coma and is battling back! Special newbie recognition to Kevin Baker for completing his first triathlon and Sarah P-M for completing her 1st Olympic distance race. Coaches Dana and Jack did not disappoint in the sprint -- Dana won Grandmaster and Jack won his AG. Kudos to Scott Peterson who despite bashing his foot on his bike during transition managed a 7 minute PR and finished 4th overall and 2nd in his age group in the Olympic distance race.

Friday Night Lights Community Open 2 Mile Race
Friday Night Lights Community Open 2 mile race was held on August 28 at Bear Branch Sports Field in The Woodlands.
Finish Strong was well represented by FSR adults and kids from our youth summer run camp.
Although not on the list, Ronnie Delzer finished 2nd overall. Three generations of the DePrang/Clark family - Phillip DePrang, his son-in-law Casey Clark, and Casey's son - all participated. Carl Holt ran and finished in 14:10.6. Our youth summer run camp had many participants. Here are the results of FSC folks who are included on the online results who pre-registered. Sadly, we don't have times or all the names of those who signed up race day. The online results only captured names and times of those who pre-registered.
Luis Cavazos 12:48.6
Eric Deluga 12:49.5
Carl Holt 14:10.6
