Time Trials -
We are targeting 4 TT’s this year, and we are going to be doing things a little differently…
Our First TT:
When - May 25th at 9:00 am (yes, that is a Sunday morning)
Where - Humbolt Road (yes, that is a different location.)
We are hoping that with a different day of the week, we can get more folks out there to test themselves on a newly repaved course with no vehicle traffic.
And the bonus is that if you were going to ride long on Sunday, you can do the TT first and then go for your long ride!!
Thursday Night Hill Repeats -
Located in Upper Park, there are a group of folks that have been running Hill Repeats on Thursday Nights. If you want to be a stronger runner, there are few things you can do that are better than Hill Repeats. Come on out and give it a try.
Swims:
The Friday Morning One Mile open water swims will start after Memorial Day. Keep an eye out on ePeak for more details. If you are looking to swim, we recommend swimming at the InMotion Pool. You can often catch other triathletes swimming with the Chico Aquajets Masters Program at the InMotion Pool.
Rides:
Wednesday Night Rides: The 50’s have started and are rolling at 5:30pm on Wednesday nights. These rides leave from Rosedale Elementary and they are a Chico cycling staple. Please check the Chico Area Group Rides Facebook page for more details.
There are scattered weekend rides, but the most consistent riding opportunities can be found on the Chico Area Group Rides Facebook page.
Runs:
Saturday Morning Runs: The Saturday morning runs meet at Five Mile Recreation Area near the bathrooms. There’s an 8:00 AM “dog” run and a slower-paced run that leaves at 9:00 AM. Check the ePeak app for updates and starting times.
Tuesday Night Run: The Tuesday night run meets at the Sycamore Pool next to the bathrooms at 5:30 PM.

May the waters be clear, the wind be at your back, and keep the rubber side down.
