2010 Newsletters
August 2010
By the time the next newsletter comes out, the kids will be back at school, the leaves on the trees will be changing colour, and the 2010 triathlon/duathlon race season will soon be over. Sorry to remind you but it is a reality. Until then though, MultiSport Canada has a race for you to do every weekend in August. Bracebridge (August 7 & 8), Toronto Island (August 14 - a few spots left & 15 - sold out), Simcoe Shores Relay (August 21 & 22), and Cobourg (August 28 & 29). And don't forget about our last two events in September - Wasaga and Lakeside. Registrations are picking up and the Lakeside GT 12.9 is close to being sold out already. Act now to ensure you get the races you want to close off the 2010 season. Triple Race Challenge hopefuls are reminded to register for Cobourg and Wasaga to make sure that you are still in the running for prizes. We are excited to announce an exciting trip to the legendary Challenge Roth next year. There are only 20 racing spots available so check out the details and respond with your interest. Enjoy this edition of the newsletter, we have some important series news, our monthly exclusive book offer, Ask the Coach with Coach Pickering's Report from Lake Placid, a video from Richard Pady, articles about Running with Infinit, improving overall cycling performance, passing drills, swim clinic announcements, and much more.
July 2010
Can you believe it's July already? We are closely approaching the halfway point of our season and the first half has certainly been a booming success with our debut at Woodstock, a soggy but great day in Binbrook, and our inaugural Welland Half Iron which was a huge hit. The wonderful news is that we still have lots of awesome races to choose from (except Gravenhurst of course since the Triathlons are sold out). So make sure that you make the best of the summer racing season and join us for a few more. And for those of you who completed the Welland Half Iron Triathlon, especially the women, please consider racing the Cobourg and Wasaga Beach Olympic Triathlons, this way you can qualify for the Triple Race Challenge and the chance to win cash and prizes. Enjoy this edition of the newsletter, we have some important series news, our monthly exclusive book offer, Ask the Coach, articles about fueling during the bike, riding aero, swimming for newbies, a first timers view of the Welland Half Iron, and much more.

June 2010
With the start of a new season this coming Saturday at Woodstock, we have also introduced a new way that you will be receiving our monthly newsletter. We think the new look is real slick but most importantly you can now quickly see what areas of the newsletter interests you, and with the click of a mouse you will be taken directly to that section. It is as simple as that! Enjoy this edition of the newsletter and we hope to see you this weekend at Woodstock.
May 2010
The weather is getting warmer, and the race season will soon be upon us with our inaugural race at Woodstock on June 5th. So maybe it is appropriate that with less than a month to go before our season starts that this May newsletter is our most jam-packed yet. There are lots of Series updates, news from the MultiSport Canada Running Series, Hanging Out with Infinit, our latest Book of the Month offer, a 7 Systems offer and contest, a training camp with Nate Bower, MultiSport Zone’s Woodstock Training day and other clinics, our Ask the Coach feature, articles by Richard Pady, Tyler Lord, Radical Cycling, Absolute Endurance, and a look at two very interesting athletes. Enjoy!
April 2010
By the time this edition of the newsletter meets your eyes, it will be approximately 60 days until the start of the season at Woodstock - June 5. It is definitely time to get on your bikes, and last weekend was just about perfect for it, heck if we could have anticipated this rare bout of warm weather we could have had a race for you. This edition of the newsletter has training tips, our book of the month selection - a must for improving your swim, some important updates from Mike Cheliak, a look at Challenge Roth, our most recent MultiSport Canada Radio interview with Nick Capra, and more. Don't forget the HST kicks in on your race registrations on May 1st, so pick your races and register soon. Enjoy and happy training!
March 2010
There is just a little over 3 months left to go until the start of the MultiSport Canada race season and we have a ton of stuff for you to check out to get you primed and ready. We've got a new series race drink - Infinit Nutrition, a new Kids Aquathlon, swim tips, Ask the Coach, athlete articles and lots more. Enjoy!
February 2010
With February there may not be a ton of races but it sure is a busy month. We have Chinese New Year, Family Day, Valentines Day, Black History Month, and for our University students there is Reading Week. Regardless, it is time get out of winter hibernation and start training. Especially if the Welland Half Irondistance is on your schedule. Our upcoming race schedule is chock full of events for everyone, and with lots of cool and exciting features. In this issue we will look at some of those features that make the MultiSport Canada Series unique, and of course interesting articles from our coaches and sponsors. Enjoy!
