HAPPY GROUNDHOG DAY!!


So here's a few notes on what went on before the meeting tonight:

First off, Kevin carried the uniforms into the room all by his lonesome.  We all played the world's saddest song on the worlds smallest guitar for him.  
Kevin kicked Christian out from being VP. Bobby then became the new vice president, (for 3 1/2 minutes), then Christian came in and was VP again.

The End.


Here's a few notes on what went on during the meeting tonight:


First off, if you are a new member, welcome!!  I'm glad you're here, and be sure to fill out a sports club waiver!!

Next, this Friday there will be a time trial with the cycling team. They will leave from Turlington plaza at 3:30 PM.  Check out the Team Florida website for more information.  There is also a bike race in Progress park on Saturday starting at 2 PM. Progress park is located 14 miles north on 441. The cost is $10 to race and $10 for a USA cycling license. Women UF Students race free! (they still have to buy the one day cycling license)

Bike Route is having a few workshops coming up!  The first one is February 9th, at 6:15pm.  The Nutritionist, Bob Seebohar will be there giving information about nutrition before, during and after a race!  The next workshops will be focused on 'Transition Practice'.  The dates for these workshops will be: 2/11; 2/25; 3/4; 3/18.  All take place from 9am-10:30 am.  You will learn how to become faster at changing from swimming, to biking, then to running.

Interested in improving your swimming strokes?  Then why not see your strokes on 'Underwater Video'?  On February 12, from 9am-11am, at the outside pool at the Odome, you will receive one-to-one feedback with Coach Ryan, and a DVD with all of your underwater skills from different angles.  
The DVD will have a voice over for key points of improvement.  It costs $25 for master swimmers, or $35 for non- members.  If you have any questions, email Ryan Woodruff at:  Gatorswimclub@hotmail.com.  Don't miss this opportunity to have your swimming technique evaluated using underwater video on the pool deck during practice!!

Next, Brian did some figuring on Nationals.  Basically, everything but food and the plane ticket will be reimbursed to you.  The plane ticket will be $321 plus another $50 for the shipping of your bike.  We'll have the hotel Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.  The hotel is Circus Circus.   There will be 5 to a hotel rooms. We will have 3 seven passenger vans. We will return that Sunday.   The first deadline for Nationals is March 1st, and it'll be $55. Hope ya'll come, and remember..... wetsuits!!!
