Age Grouper of the Week
\xa0
John D, of Epic Camp fame, sent through this weeks age grouper. Here\u2019s what he said: I have two\xa0friends that are husband and wife that did the race with me. I was inspired\xa0by the wife's performance. Kathryn\xa0Clayton had absolutely no athletic background unless you count cheer leading in high school and college.\xa0Her life is very busy like most triathletes. She is the mother of two young children and runs the family business. She\xa0did her first triathlon about 3 1/2 years ago so that she could be part of the world that her husband Kevin Clayton\xa0was/is so passionate about. She started with Olympic and Sprint races and worked up to a 1/2 IM last year. Her goal for her first IM was 13 hours. She did 12:57 in very difficult condition last Sunday. I witnessed a lot of very fit people and experience triathletes finish after 13 hours.

Website of the Week
Roman Mica from www.everymantri.com sent though this weeks website, here\u2019s what he wrote: Boulder, Colorado April 3, 2008 --- What does a\xa0 23-year-old Colorado college student, a 47-year-old financial planner, a 37-year-old mother of three, and a 9-year-old elementary school student have in common?
They all recently swam, biked, and ran their birthday along with dozens of
other athletes from\xa0 around the world.
Imagine celebrating your health, and your fitness on your birthday by swimming, running, and biking your age. That's exactly what\xa0 athletes are doing as part of the new raceAthlete B-Fit B-Day Challenge. The athletes take their age and:
1) Swim the number of miles in the first number
2) Run the number of miles in the second number
3) Bike the number of miles in the combined number
So a 45-year-old athlete would:
1) Swim 4 miles
2) Run 5 miles
3) Bike 45 miles
