Last Issue- 1/11/2021

 

Celebrating athletic achievement that betters ourselves, our teammates, and our community.

  



This will be the last newsletter on this platform. The past issues aren't reaching enough folks to justify the time needed to produce the letter.  You can still read all the past posts in the archive.  Instead, for 2022 - look for team news, opportunities, and results on Slack under their appropriate heading.  If you haven't joined the Team Slack forum, just click on the link here.  Many activities/events appear on the team’s social media as well. 



Merino Wool tops are once again available, let us know if you're interested.  We will also be opening the kit store in the next few weeks so look for more info. 






2022 is SBC Athletics 10th anniversary season; incentives for membership. See the table below. 









Look for these continuing items of importance on Slack:


We want to hear your stories. How does racing shape your life? Your perspective on the race? Is there an experience that stands out? We’ll read every response, but nothing will be shared without your permission. Shot Stephanie an email stephs090386@gmail.com 


It has been a while since we offered PEDAL Industries SBC kit bags. No minimum order number is required.  The pro bag is the newest bag offered by PEDAL Industries. You can also get your name added to it for customization. There is also now a "changing poncho" that is offered on the website.


December 13th Fleet Feet Springfield extends a 10% discount on electronics and a 15% discount on in-store products to SBC Athletics. So be sure you mark your calendars. 


Pirate Perry Events is now offering SBCA 10% off of their events. There are a few exceptions on a few events they don't direct or those races n but are posted on their website. The code is "SBCA 10off".  Link to Events 


Look for the Classic Beer Mile on the regular. It will be coming up every 3rd Saturday of the month. Tell your beer-drinking/running friends. Also, look for new and better prizes! The information below is in "Upcoming."


Are you and a bunch of teammates headed to a big event? An Ultra, a big gravel race, triathlon, or volunteering for a trail workday? Wouldn't some SBC beer afterward be refreshing? Would you like to take along some SBC Brews to share? Contact Neil. He will hook you up. 


Join SLACK. It is the best way to keep in touch with teammates and coordinate group activities. 


SBC Bar tape is finally in and available again. If you ordered a set, you could pick it up at the front desk at SGB- $25 cash only. 


If you would like a commemorative brick to celebrate an athletic milestone, get in touch with Neil. These are really cool and stand as a lasting reminder of your epic achievement.

None to report



We still struggle with getting results reported. But, if you'd finished something big, just crossed a milestone, meeting a goal, and especially if you podiumed, we all want to hear about it. You can email stephs090386@gmail.com. This helps to get the results reported on time.
