        <![CDATA[<p>The 2008 off season is officially here, but who says the races are over? <a target="_blank" href="http://www.evotri.com">Team Evotri</a> has a brand new program on tap to keep you tri-primed all winter long, complete with exclusive team opportunities and prizes for your efforts. In fact, we have quite a bit of news to report as we round out the year and get the ball rolling for 2009!</p>

<p>With all of our sponsors returning for another stellar season, and with brand new sponsor, <a target="_blank" href="http://www.headsweats.com"><em>Headsweats</em></a> joining the team, we're looking forward to giving back to the community in an even bigger way. In addition to our current grassroots endeavors - Simply Stu's World Wide Triathlon, Trisaratops's Youth Initiative, along with RobbyB and Iron Wil's Wisconsin Brick Adventure -  just to name a few - we're now planning to reach across borders and oceans in order to do our part to change the world, and we want you to be part of the movement. </p>

<p>Do you have what it takes to fulfill the Evotri Iron Challenge?</p>

<p>This winter, we challenge you to complete an Iron distance race every month. 140.6 miles of swimming, cycling and running at 2.4 miles, 112 miles, and 26.2 miles respectively. You have 30 days, and countless ways to break it down to fit your schedules. Feeling especially elite? Why not try two, even three Iron distances per month? Not only will the top performers receive sweet swag and high honors, they'll also be raising money and awareness for charity JUST by logging miles! Also, complete at least one Iron distance each month and be entered in our <em>grand prize drawing</em>. Here's how to get involved:</p>

<p>Start by joining the <a target="_blank" href="http://www.plus3network.com/">Plus3 Network</a>, it's free for you, and priceless for so many more. Log your miles over the next several months and watch them turn to dollars for charities all over the world. Team Evotri sponosr SRAM, among other industry leading companies like Pedros have partnered with Plus3 and pledged to donate cash to the charity of your choice for every swim, ride, and run you do - charities like World Bicycle Relief, The Breast Cancer Research Foundation, Safe Routes (ensuring kids' safe passage to school), and The Environmental Defense Fund, among many more. Once you've created your account at www.plus3network.com, follow the next three steps to not only keep yourself motivated over the coming months, win cool prizes and meet awesome people, but also to have your mileage make a difference all over the world. After you've created your free account:</p>

<ol>
<li>Select a sponsor and a charity of your choice</li>
<li>Under PEOPLE, search for "Evotri" and start a "friend request"</li>
<li>You will then receive a request to join the Challenge</li>
</ol>

<p>And that's it. Let the base training begin!</p>

        <![CDATA[<p>So <a href="http://www.simplystu.com">Stu</a> likes to trash talk. Alot. And <a href="http://rural-girl.blogspot.com/">Michelle</a> and I aren't ones to let Stu get away with it. So we asked if he would put his reputation on the line. So we made some gentlemen (and ladies) wagers:</p>

<p>There are two wagers, 1) Between Stu & Rob and 2) Between Stu & Michelle.</p>

<p>The wagers are identical.</p>

<p>In each, the athlete with the slower official chip time (including swim, bike, run splits, transitions and penalties) at the <a href="http://www.ironmanneworleans.com/">April 5, 2009 Ironman 70.3 New Orleans triathlon</a> shall compose a <strong>hand-written</strong>, <strong>original</strong> letter once per calendar month for the six (6) consecutive months following the race, including April. (April - September)</p>

<p>The letter shall be addressed to the athlete with the faster time. The letter shall be postmarked by the end of the respective month. The entire letter must be contained in one standard #10 envelope with no more than one USPS stamp. The letter shall contain at least three sentences articulating the following:<blockquote>1) The addressee is faster than the signer.<br />
2) The signer is slower than the addressee.<br />
3) In general, the addressee is better than the signer.</blockquote></p>

<p>So there you have it. May the best person (me, natch) win!</p>]]>
