We started the meeting with introductions. The officers this year are:

 Nika Merta - President
 Mariel Glenn - Vice President
 Erik Swedberg - Treasurer
 Christian Thomas - Secretary

The club website is www.trigator.com - just about all of the information you’ll need about TriGators- workouts, race information, news items, etc. is posted here.

First thing to do is turn in your sports clubs waivers! You can print a copy from the website and take it to Rec Swim (at the pools on campus) to complete. You’ll need to do a lap or two swim test and tread water for a few minutes and have the lifeguard sign off that you competed. You can turn in your waiver to a club officer at any of the workouts or meetings.

Group workouts:
Monday - Track Workout 6:00 pm - Percy Beard Track
Wednesday - ~5 mi. Law School Run 6:00 pm - At 24th St. and 2nd Ave. (in front of the law school)
Friday - Swim 5:00-7:00 pm - Florida Pool

The Monday run and Friday swim are our coached workouts, where Jim Leary will be there to help you out.

We also have a Saturday long run at San Felasco. We meet at 8:00 am for 4-16 miles of easy running. Directions are on the website.

Doug and Friderike visited from the Bike Route, the TriGators sponsor bike shop. The shop is located on south on 3429 West University Avenue. They will help you get set up with bike that fits you and is suited to your needs. And if you have turned in your TriGators sports club waiver, you’ll get great discounts so you can actually afford some nice things.

Fall Races: (that we reimburse for)
October 1st - Health First Triathlon - Olympic distance

October 22nd - Great Floridian Triathlon - Sprint distance (www.somersports.com/events/greatfloridian/sprint/SPRINTinformation.asp)

Well I think that about covers it. Thanks to everybody who came out, we hope to see you at the workouts!
