Want to "try a tri?"
|
|
Please join us for our first annual Team Tiara Triathlon Team. We will be training for the Highline Hustle - a great tri for first-timers. It will be held at Highline Lake on June 7th, 2008 and includes a 500 meter open-water swim, a 16 mile bike ride and a 3.5 mile trail run. We have expert coaches to help you succeed in the endeavor. What a great way to try something new, get in shape and meet women who have the same goals as you. Want more information? Please join us at our kick-off meeting to be held at Traders Coffee on Patterson and 7th at 6 p.m. on Thursday, February 28th. Hope to see you there.

2007 Team Tiara
|
|
Our 2007 Team Tiara, 43 runners strong, trained hard and completed races from San Francisco to New York. About 35 members of our team ran in Moab, Utah. Collectively we raised $16,000 dollars to help empower young girls in Western Colorado. As a team we accomplished so much and still, we had a ball! Highlights included: training runs with Coach Kathaleen and Coach Leanne where we were able to chat—and sweat—with old and new friends; our pre-race dinner and tiara decorating party where team members Katharina and Joanne played a big role; Laura, our Denver team-mate, completing the Chicago Marathon amongst excruciating record breaking heat; the finish line at The Other Half Marathon in Moab where EVERYONE pushed through and completed that tough course; and most enjoyable of all, being surrounded by amazing, talented women gallivanting around in public wearing TIARAS.
