YES!!!

Got the lowdown direct from Tom Ganz yesterday afternoon up at Skytop at the SOS finish line.
He is FIRED UP that AmZof will be back again, and they are going to work hard to make it even better than ever.
Lots of new sponsors, in addition to most of the past ones.

Anybody who lives within driving distance of New Paltz NY has NO EXCUSE to not attend this race, it's one of the very best events in the country, in one of the most beautiful venues in the world.

Also - FREE BEER!!!
In Big Honkin Steins.

AmZof OG Kevin Krol & his lovely bride Anne make the 8 hour drive from Cleveland OH to New Paltz almost every year.
Suck it up, buttercups.

Be there.

Good news! I really missed the 2017 race and was happy to defer to 2018. In for 2018 LC.

I will come out of self imposed ST exile and out of multi-sport "retirement" for one thing only, AmZof!

Thanks for the update. I will be there

And that's why you rock.
Looking forward to getting the band back together!!

SOS really??? (figured you were spectating)

Impressed that you swam more yesterday than all of the last 5 years ;)

No. 1 bike split is not to shabby either!

Nice job!

LOL!!
Yeah, I'm a local now, and apparently it's like a requirement of some sort.
I wasn't really given much choice in the matter.

Well, I kinda *was* spectating - got to watch at least 30-someodd people pass me after I got in first off the bike.
Was fun leading the race for the back half of the bike course, with a State Trooper in front of me, and a moto shooting video next to me.

I have no idea who that guy is.

I got the race I trained for.
My geezer wave was 4th, so I got to ride thru everybody from the 3 waves in front of me, from 1-3 minutes ahead.
I got thru very cleanly, much to my surprise and delight.
Been biking fairly well, so the plan was to win the bike prime, then do whatever for the rest, and just try to "survive" the race.

Hoping to be in shape for AmZof next May.
I always "plan" to train for it - just haven't often kept to that plan these past few years.
Looking forward to seeing you there again, even if yer not going to be racing it, this time around.

Felt a ripple in the force and a tingling down where my bathing suit covers..........alas AmZof 2018 gets rubber stamped into my next May! Look forward to being humbled by CWD distance and watching the LC folks stride thru the pavilion whilst I enjoy burger and extras. Sure hope the shirts are white this year. Will the kilt wearing, baby bump sporting, McWheezy be piping up the National Anthem? (It's like going to Disney and seeing Mickey....a must have). Is it too early for the smack thread to get rolling? I understand if we lobby hard enough, the CWD damsel CeeCee might be encouraged to throw a brick on her gas pedal and make the trip down from Ontario to hold court in the pavilion. Some day hope to throw down for the GCG Memorial distance.........but that day awaits.

Odds are long against skirt-wearing Fatty McWheezy blowing the pipes next year, as he's no longer the RD and has pretty much completely stepped away from multisport these past 2 years or so.
Although he is now following me on Strava, if that counts for anything.

Very psyched that all of the (ir)regulars are going to be returning to the siren song of New Paltz, where the beer flows like wine, where beautiful Canadian Womens instinctively flock like the salmon of Capistrano.
I'm talking about a little race called AmZof.

"if you chose it, it's not really pain"

I think I am ready to pull the trigger and get back in on the "fun".

I'll have to break the news very subtly and gently to my legs, as they have never quite forgiven me for the pain I put them through at my last go round at AZ.

Making a comeback this year and bringing a new team to AmZof. We are the pink flamingos and are a group of middle aged men who are better at drinking than multi sports, but looking to make a strong comeback. Seems like we should fit in!

You will see a bunch of men running around in pink tackling the middle course this year

I know little about this race, but it sounds awesome. Do people camp nearby? Or are there hotels close?

What's the course like? Super hilly?

I think it's time to come back.

@ML..... Swallows of Capistrano.... you illiterate moron....

Middle aged, better at drinking than multisport?
Looking to make a comeback?

Thank God you'll be wearing pink, or we wouldn't be able to tell you apart from all the rest of us.

Dearest CeeCee,

This would be an ideal time to bust out

So, you're bringing the Appletini's again this year, right?

Rich,
It would almost be worth it to get my ass handed to me by you, yet again, just to have ya back racing at AmZof where ya belong.
Almost.

---

float , hammer , and jog

It IS awesome!

You can camp nearby if you so desire.
There's one campground area that is literally right along the bike course.

There are hotels fairly close by - everything from a Hostel thru cheap chains thru a Hampton Inn and all the way up to the 5* Mohonk Mountain House.

It is quite hilly, but nothing mere mortals can't handle.

All 3 distances start off with the same 5m trail run. It's hilly, but not terrible, and everybody runs all of the first run, because they can.
Enjoy that feeling, since you likely won't be doing that again the whole way the next time around.

Short Course aka Canadian Womens Distance then has 1 lap of the bike course, a challenging but super fun hilly 29m loop, which starts off (after bombing down the dirt road coming from transition) with a tough climb up Mohonk.
Followed by an E-ticket ripping descent.
It's an awesome bike loop, with a bunch of fantastic scenery and wide variety of terrain.

Short course finishes up with another 5m lap of the run course. Get acquainted with the term "power-hiking", since the gravity gets turned up to 11 on all the hills on the run course after you've done the bike loop.

Middle Distance aka the G Chris Gleason Memoral, is a F1 format:
Run/Bike/Run/Bike/Run.
So - identical to Short Course, but then you go out for another bike after the 2nd run, then a 3rd run lap after the bike.
T3 & T4 are definitely an interesting new experience.

Long Course - is 1 lap run/3 laps bike/3 laps run.
7-10+ hours of fun, for the same low, low price as the other 2 races!

All of which followed by FREE BEER!!
In Big Honkin Steins!!
(Assuming you place well enough to win one)
And a fantastic post race spread put out by Doug and crew from Main Street Bistro.

There's nothing more fun than finishing your race, hanging out drinking beer and swapping war stories, all while heckling the long course racers as they come thru the Pavilion yet again.
It doesn't get any better than that.

1. Hear me now and believe me later, you girlyman, you better start your training now if you're going to do anything longer than the Canadian Womens distance!

The "short course" takes longer to finish than USAT National "long course".

One of them is mislabeled.

And don't worry about the climbs. Its the downhills that will kill you.

wow..... how have I missed that? ick. LOL, yes apparently I need to come back for some learnin' from you lot. :-)

I had to do a lot of searching to find it. I thought it must have been part of John Balushi's speech in Animal House.

LOL.
Most, er many, ok - SOME - people really enjoy the descents.

Rather than white-knuckling your way down them, you should go with the prison rape strategy -
You can't avoid it, so try to relax and enjoy the ride, and get it over with as quickly as possible.

Making a return as well after 2 yrs away from this race great race. Signed up for the Chris Gleason Memorial and looking forward to another stein. Oh, I'll be one of those running around in pink, cursing those climbs.

I'll do it if you do it.

Oooh! All the GCG studs coming back for '18?

I might just have to step my game up from the Canadian Womens Division if that is indeed the case.

Awesome.

All of these hills, I'm guessing most people ride regular road bikes? Is the dirt out of transition the only rough road?

TT bike, with all the go-fast aero goodies you own, or can beg, borrow, or steal.

There's only a short dirt hill section that's unpaved and somewhat rough, the rest of the course is in decent to good to very good shape.
There are LOTS of parts that you'll be in the aerobars for miles at a time.

I think I will be coming back. Deciding whether to go for 3rd time doing long course or middle. Regardless, I am feeling the pull of this race. If you haven't done it and are thinking about it, just commit, you won't regret it.

I seriously want to be there again, but I might be in Europe for work. TBA for me. If I can rework a couple things, I'll be at AmZof! Need a more recent picture with you and Rich for my old-man-admiration-wall.

Brett, it's time to Shake and bake!

And for you ML, also in the words of Ricky (or Reese) Bobby, if you ain't first, you're last.

Let's do this.

I don't know..... silly me, went and grew my tax practice over the last couple of years, and our Canucki tax deadline is April 30th.... doesn't give me a lot of time to get in much outdoor riding b4 AmZof....

PFFFFTTTTT!!! Said the woman who trained like an Olympian for Penticton National Du's earlier this year.....Fear not the Pavilion, fear not the chalk start line..............fear everything else! I'm back this year proudly representin' the back of the pack of CWD!!

It was Worlds, not Nationals.... but it could have been Universe...... nothing scares me more than the chalk start line of AmZof!

You just want me to come back so the I will be the back of the pack.... not you!

BTW, we had a mini AmZof reunion at Worlds in Penticton. Myself and TriYoda. He's not getting any shorter and I'm not getting any taller. No ICBs were harmed in the taking of this picture.

The descents are the only fond memories I have of that course. Especially the big one. That was almost worth the price of admission.

Funny how different people are. I love the climbs, hate the descents.

I guess that's what makes it fun....

I'm pretty sure the closer you are to (or over) 200 lbs, the more you enjoy the descents. Unless you are ML and your desire to get to the beer and burgers outweighs all.

Mostly the beer. And the heckling.

But also, I *heart* the AmZof descents.
And I’m only a buck fitty-something.

C’’mon CeeCee, the CWD just ain’t the CWD without a real live Canadian Womens in it.

No, I want you to come back for your rapier-like wit, sparkling personality and cosmopolitan flair......or something like that.

Please don't have me fly solo with the Spandex Clad Mohonk Pavilion Trolls. But for their banjoes, they have very poor communication skills. I understand their "Hooked on Phonics" course only comes with half the sounds and three of which are farm animals. In short (see what I did there...), we need your presence to liven up these watt obsessed mouth breathers.

First step taken. I have a hotel reservation. Now I just need to sign up for the race (and train a bit). Long course here I come.

this.

I remember hiking (not power hiking) the run loop but man oh man was that bike descent fun. I have moved to the coast of Maine - almost Canada so a good 11 hours drive away and I think I have a marathon the same weekend but wow is this tempting

Who's in for this? I am available that weekend. And, I built a new, electrified rig, which will make the climbs faster.

Yes sir. CWD. Is that the bike you rode to with the Delta Double?

Never raced this course, but i've biked up to Skytop before. I almost cried on my way back down the mountain, the decent eastbound is so scary ;.; Especially the random ass stop sign (Canaan Road i think?) near the bottom when you're already going 30+ mph out of a damn turn. To anyone unfamiliar with the area, do yourself a favor and save some energy to hike up to Skytop tower. The views make the painful gravel grinding worth it

Did Delta on my classic P3. Same frame now, but with eTap and some TriRig goodies. Hopefully I'll see you at AmZof, not sure on a distance yet!

Signed up for my third Long Course. A hard course but I've been lucky with the weather up to now, I can't imagine riding on that bike course in the rain!!

Anyone driving up from Manhattan the day of the race want to car share ?

Happy to share fuel etc

Is there a competitor list so I can avoid the studs :) ?

On the fence for middle or long , not done the bike miles for the long

Cheers

I am not sure anybody has ever done enough miles for the long course...

Where is everybody? This is the quietest I've ever seen it for AZ. The facebook page makes it look like a little walk around the garden

I'm in California for a trail run. I have to take it very easy this year, I'm having a heart issue that I hope won't turn out to be too bad. Angiogram when I get home.

''Sweeney - you can both crush your AG *and* cruise in dead last!! 😂 '' Murphy's Law

Been a really crappy spring that turned to summer. 2 things I predict - weather is going to suck. Either really hot or really cold. We will all be under prepared.

Personally, lots of work on my house & yard & lots of travel for work, so training has been a lacking. Fortunately I'm "only" running 10 miles and riding 28 in 2 weeks.

Just realized its 2 weeks away........

Perhaps I'll focus on the Spring dual next weekend. Its still New Paltz so it counts - right?

I saw your heart post. Good luck there, hope it all turns up to be nothing

While I get it's not a requirement to be in great shape to begin the smack talking, I was seriously considering DNS'ing this. But I've come around to embracing the potential (probable) DNF. I could drop down, and put a calendar reminder for today's deadline (I think) to switch, but as a proper Zofingen-ite (?), Zonfingen-er (?), I'm staying the course and remain signed up for LC. I'm looking forward to punishing myself through 2 legs, and then walking until it would be rude to go on.

So with that, here's some smack. Come on y'all - do LC. I dare you to try to run slower than me!

---

To breathe, to feel, to know I'm alive.

Yeah, on weather, my money is on Hot like 2012. But b/c I know better than to trust a weather report for this race, I'll pack for a zombie apocolypse (sp?) and be prepared for anything.

---

To breathe, to feel, to know I'm alive.

Been wondering as well. I'm out as my son graduates from college that weekend. Not sure I would've raced anyway as I've lost all desire but hoped to live vicariously through the AZ thread.



Without Murphy's Law championing the cause it's a graveyard here.

Sadly, I think last year's cancelation combined with McGovern handling over the RD duties (and similarly not posting) we may be witnessing the demise of AmZof.

But, like the slow death of triathlon in general, I guess it's not too surprising. I hope I'm wrong cuz if I ever race again it would be AmZof.

Guess I better get my sub 3:00 this year.

I'm signed up and ready to go. This is my first time doing it so I figured I'd go all out and do the long course. How bad can it be for an old man in his mid 60's? As the say, "If I don't die on the way up, hopefully I won't kill myself on the way down".

By the way, what's recommended for a rear cassette? I will be using my road bike and have a 52/39 up front. I was thinking either 11/28 or even a 11/32 rear in case some of the grades go above 10% for any length of time. I'd hate to be grinding it out with a cadence lower than 60.

I used an 11/28 with the same rings you have up front. There's only one short super steep (low cadence) bump at the tail end of the bike loop. For long course, that totally blows on lap #3. The 32 could be handy on the first hill of the loop. It's not crazy steep, but it's fairly steep and not short. If you get a chance to do a practice ride on the course, I highly recommend it.

Thanks for the info. I will use the 11/32 cassette just in case. Better to be over geared than under even if the jumps per cog are more than I would like. It will be the lesser of the two evils. I wont have time to ride my bike prior to the race but I will definitly do some recon next week by at least driving the course.

I am registered for middle distance, and training has gone well. But, now on Day 12 of zero running due to a mysterious swelling/bruising/fuck-it-hurts in the bottom of my foot.

No promises from me on the race. Definitely not the right time for an injury. Really hoping I get there in some capacity!

Hmm, is this legit or some serious sandbagging from a former GCG champ????

Legit, unfortunately.

Good luck with the ticker! I am out myself this year after knee surgery in March. Hope things go your way.

I am out as well. I ran an ultra trail marathon in January and it crushed my soul (but sure was fun). At 54 I am finding it harder and harder to recover from the long, difficult races. I have Achilles issue that I havent been able to overcome yet.

Good luck to all, and for the LC racers, just keep moving forward...the pain will end, I promise.

Everyone lying in bushes. Word on street is that Long Course has "stacked field" this year... including (former?) pro Travis Hawkins. This from (un)reliable, multi-time champ, wimping out this year, Colin Martin. 2 weeks til go time. Proverbially hay squarely in barn.

I will be there in spirit boys..... back in 19!

Good luck to all..... GO BIG OR GO HOME. Shed some tears, and replenish w beers!

not so much smackity smack talk this year...oh well...I'm showing up to do more LC stupid shit again. I have ridden about 60ish miles of the Amzof course on my computrainer, 1 once a week for the past 3 weeks. Holy...f*cking balls... Trainer tire bits all over the place, high speed fan directly on the generator. Hope this gets me around the circle 3 times.

I still think this race is the best backyard, grass roots event going...

Waaaahhhh. I'm so sorry I'm not going to be there. The training just isn't where it needs to be. Tax Season blah, blah, blah. I'm very pleased to see that AmZof is continuing, albeit with a new RD and team. Wishing you all a good weather day, and all the best on the roads and in the woods. I have such wonderful memories of this race.

In other news, Tri_Yoda and I did our own version of AmZof last August in Penticton. Eat Mexican Dinner/Drink Mexican Beer-Race Duathlon Worlds-Eat Indian Dinner/Drink Indian Beer. And, he's not getting any shorter, and I'm not getting any taller!

Hello fellow AmZofians!!!

Sorry I have been derelict in my Marketing Director duties for AmZof this year, but I just started a new business after nearly 22 years in my old gig, so the past 6+ months have been all about getting that going, which we just did 3 weeks ago!

I used to bust on CeeCee for not being able to train/race due to her business obligations, and now I know exactly what she must have been going thru.
Although I doubt she had all of her former colleagues/"friends" from her old job actively trying to steal all of her best clients, a la what happened to Tom Cruise in the movie Jerry Maguire.

My Strava training log looks like the EKG of a dead man for the past few months, with just an occasional blip here and there.

But the other main reason I won't be there, is that it's my niece's college graduation weekend.
Her ceremony is at 8am tomorrow over in CT.
And my wife is her Godmother, so there was no getting out of it - not that I would have wanted to miss that anyway.

It looks like PERFECT American Zofingen racing conditions are on the docket for tomorrow!!!
50's and rain, just like it aughta be.

Stay safe, keep the rubber-side down, and have "fun" tomorrow!!!!

Above all, I will miss riding this bike course. I have never rode it well but damn, the views are spectacular and the challenge is so much fun.

Sad to hear that there don't seem to be a ton of alums out this year (or at least smack talkin'). Downer of a year (or three) for me too. 30X up Mohonk must have really screwed my legs. My mind and heart are still out there but the body....meh.

We weren't able to make it out this year to help Tom & team either - Anne's daughter is graduating in a week (plus all the stuff that goes along with making sure you've got everything set to get your kid off to college the first time), and we've been hosting an exchange student for the past 8 months. And business.

We'll be up for it next spring. If I can get my legs to function normally again, I'd throw down (mostly myself) at the Canadian Women's again for shits and giggles. Mostly shits.

There was a $10 off deal if you registered yesterday (which I didn’t, too busy) but for $100 it is BY FAR the best deal in all of multisport, especially for Long Course.

In all the years AmZof has been run, I have only missed it twice.
Hope to make my return next year to start up a new streak.

Get some.

YES !!!!!!! That's two new people I've swayed :-D :-D

Yesterday was a wake up call to me of how stupid I was to skip the last five years of AmZof......well..injuries and life getting in the way took me out of a couple of those years but you get the picture. Nothing...like..it.

I haven't put my money where my mouth is yet but I see another streak beginning as well.

Missed some of the "regulars" out there this year, but you get a pass ML. Thanks to Mark, Tom and all the volunteers. That's the 5th (I think?) time I've done LC, but first since '14. Ya forget how brutal that course is. Glad I could squeak LC W for the Old Guys. Colin Martin back in '19 to represent 'young punks' contingent. Need Halsted back in for '19 as well!
