Online Resources


http://www.trimapper.com/ A great race resource.  This site lets you search for races by date, location, distance.  Lists over 60 iron-distance races around the world!

http://www.mikebentley.com/bike/mwrides.htm A list of all midwest supported rides.

http://www.chicagoparkdistrict.com/resources/pool_schedules/list_of_pools.html Schedules for all park district pools.

http://www.slowtwitch.com/ Probably the largest triathlon forum and news service on the web.  If you have a question, it's probably been answered here 100 times.  If you post a question, make sure you have a thick skin because it can get harsh. 

http://www.endurancenation.us/ A pay service for online training and forum.  More supportive than slowtwitch, but you have to pay for it.

http://www.thethighmasterroutetokona.blogspot.com/ A blog by one of our very own members.

http://www.velonews.com/ Great source for up to date pro cycling coverage, including live feeds from major races.

http://www.athlinks.com/ See all of your race results in one place and compare to your friends and fellow club mates.

http://www.wheelbuilder.com/ Great retailer and awesome wheel builders with quick turnaround.

http://www.racegossip.com/  Here’s a new website that provides a comprehensive list of races for triathletes and runners with a forum to rate and discuss our experiences.
