The 2023 Championship Race Series, News and Off Season Stuff- November 2022
Welcome back to the Blog, Bay Staters!
In the news this month:
- 2023 Championship Race Series
- Sponsors and Stuff
- Renewal Time
- Off Season Training
After much communication and collaboration, here is the 2023 Championship Race Series. We have a great set of races (top section) that count towards the "Age Group Awards" as per usual. Below that are two options for a Team 140.6- a state side option and a Canadian option. Definitely take a look at the Bucket List races- these are not a part of the Age Group Awards CRS, but are events we will be at and will promote!
2023 Championship Race Series
Duathlons completed will count towards Male/Female Du Competition, not Championship Race Series- Must complete 2 or more Dus; top Male and Female awarded at End of Season Party.
*Weekend Warrior- Athletes who compete in above highlighted Sat/Sunday races will be recognized/awarded at the End of Season Party.
Team Destination 140.6 Events
Bucket List Events
*Bucket list events are promoted but do not add to the points for the CRS Age Group Awards
Sponsors and Other New Stuff:
This year, we will continue our relationship with our sponsors, but may have a different beer sponsor, pending conversations with a potential new one. Stay tuned! In addition, we welcome Streamline Events as a sponsor, as you can see above a few events that Bill Burnett organizes. We will continue to work with Cycle Life as a partner/sponsor and will host events there to keep people engaged during the off season. The only change is that we are stepping away from an exclusive relationship with QT2 as a training sponsor. We will continue to share and promote QT2's range of services, and they will continue to offer Bay State athletes a discount. Same offerings, the only change is that we will also be able to share opportunities from other training services.
Renewal:
'Tis the season for renewing your Bay State Triathlon Team Membership! If you have already done so, thank you! If not, please consider hitting the renew button when you can! The exclusive race and sponsor discounts will be shared only with 2023 members, and you don't want to be left out! Also, we will be "cleaning house" on the Facebook page to make sure that only the current members are on it.
