The big news of the week is that the head of TEAM
STL will be moving with his family to Denver, Colorado. This was a tough decision, but, in order for
Strass to truly take his triathlon game to the next level it is critical that he start training in much more rugged conditions. A strict diet of climbing Vail Pass every weekend should have the kid in prime racing condition for
the 2009 season. For the record, Dr.
Noda was responsible for the initial fracture of TEAM
STL - this was just John's way of trying to one up him. Who said that we are not all competitive? The good news is that
the Tri Bull Racing roster will now feature members from multiple states which is pretty cool. Don't worry, you will still see John running with the group on Saturday mornings as he will be going back and forth from Denver for a few months. As we all know, the friendships developed while covering massive amounts of pavement (by bike and by foot) are truly special. There is a level of bonding that takes place after spending countless hours training. These bonds will not be broken due to geography. These bonds however will be broken if everyone does not sign up for the Boulder Peak Triathlon in 2009. More to come - I love you all!!! -
