Introduction

Welcome to the Crossroads vs. Naperville Triathlon

Disclaimer – I am not aware of any injuries that you might have. Let’s keep our social distance. Safety is paramount. Be careful on the bike today.

Core Principals of F3

Overview of point system –  3 categories Elite, Regular Joe, Clydesdales  –  Each category will stack rank finishes with points assigned based on the order of completion. First place 1 and so on but only the best three scores in each category will be counted.  The 3 divisions will be added together and the low score wins.

Next, we gave an overview of the triathlon.  We start with exercises 100 merkins 100 squats, 50 Big Boys, 50 Burpees OYO any order.  Elite will start in a circle surrounded by Regular Joes and Clydesdales. Second, 6.76 mile bike – through Grande Park out to Heggs to 135th St. To Ridge to 127th St. To Heggs back to 135th renter at Shenandoah. Next Run – 1.2 for reg joes and elite and .75 for Clydesdale.

When I began doing bike club with WetWipe we discussed doing a bike club down at the Ridge.  That evolved into the first Tri that we did in July.  The catch was we wanted for guys from up North to come down and experience the Ridge.  More importantly, we wanted to have an opportunity to build stronger relationships between the guys at the Ridge and our brothers who post up north i.e. Dark Tower, Outpost, Citadel , Iron Lion , and the Complex.   This event was born out of that vision.  Competition and Sweat is a great way to bond.  I believe that we had a very successful event.  Like all events there are many things we can do to improve, but I believe a good time was had by all (most all). My hope is that we continue to build a strong relationship between our Regions, AOs, and Pax.  I would like to thank WetWipes for all his effort,  Tourniquet for all the logistical work he did.  Pawn Star for all the help and bringing the coffee.  Boston Butt for all his help during the event.  Dilly Dilly and Roach Coach for their leadership and support and last for all my F3 brothers for covering my 6.  Breakaway
