Moving to Boulder, CO

Hey everyone,

I am moving to Boulder, Co tomorrow. I just wanted to say thanks for a great year of training and racing together. I am making the move for the benefits of training at altitude and to train with some of the best in the sport. I will also be going to grad school, possibly law school at CU in the fall. July will be an adjustment month for me, no racing, just getting used to the altitude. After this, I will be racing mostly elite amateur division in olympic races around the U.S., and then possible a 70.3 at the end of the season (sept, oct). So look out for my results and check my blog (damonbarnett.org) and facebook for updates and pictures. I will be back on holidays and sporadically during the winter months, so I will try to connect for some workouts so I can kick your asses. Best of luck with the rest of the season, I will be looking out for your results!

I didn't know you were moving - sad to hear it but a little part of me is happy, knowing that I move up a spot in the finishing order around here.

Damon - best of luck in CO! I'll be cheering for you.

Damon - good luck with it - sounds like a very exciting move for training and edu.

Wow Damon...you're keeping the adventures going strong! Didn't realize CO was on the horizon. You're going to do great wherever you! Glad to have had the opportunity to train together and wishing you the best in the next chapter. Safe travels and keep in touch!

I assume you will still be pulling Trination points for VO2 - you know it is a yearly membership

Good luck and have fun Damon!

Hans, you could register your Oliver results and help us out too!

Wow big changes Damon! Who am I am going to get disqualified with at Ocean Shores now you are gone?

Best of luck and I look forward to telling people I trained with you when you win Olympic Gold in triathlon

Damon,

Enjoy Boulder and best of luck as you chase down your dreams. If you ever get the chance, ride the computrainer as fast as you can in front of the "elite" athletes and see whether you can top 60 - 62 mph. Then laugh and know that Max and I will be attempting to shatter our records weekly....

I wish you well Damon, nice to know you will be looked after by a fellow Brit in Simon Lessing...

Train smart, rest smart, eat smart. And don't stalk Crowie

[HansLund]

Seriously - have fun Damon - I would give my right arm to be young again - wait, I already can't swim

Heidi, does the posting of races for points "expire"?

If not, I bet there are teams out there just waiting to post all results the last day of the challenge, no? Just saying maybe there is strategy in this and my only little crummy race could be the "surprise" posting

Just for the record, I did register but at the time Oliver was not available..
