$ Offered for Homestay in/near Austin, TX

I posted this on the main forum, but maybe it will get more interest here...


Attention Austin area triathletes:

I am looking to host a winter camp in/near Austin, TX during the last week of February 2013. I need a good sized house that will fit 6-8 campers, preferrably. I am considering renting a place from VRBO or similar site, but trying to keep costs down a little. If you are a local triathlete with a nice big/empty house (not filled with a family, etc.), perhaps it might be an attractive idea for you to host a camp. This would be a great opportunity to meet pro/elite triathletes from out of town, participate in the camp, and even make a few $ on the side.

Obviously, location is important. We want to be near a good pool, close to running trails, and near good cycling roads without having to go through too much of the busier sections of town heading out on the bike.

For anyone in particular need of coaching, our host will be provided with free coaching services - swim technique clinics, swim video analysis, bike/run coaching, etc. You will also have your meals covered and be able to partake in any/all of the group workouts throughout the week. This is a pretty unique opportunity to be part of a fun camp and we'll make it worth your while.

If you're interested, send me a PM, email (jkenny5150 at gmail), or respond to this thread. Thanks in advance!

Still looking... If you have something available, please contact me before I book something through VRBO.

I would give Austin TriCyclist a call. They may know some people who would help you. They also know the roads, trails and pools.

Thanks for the idea. It is on my list of things to do...
Do you know how I might be able to get ahold of a/the local tri club in Austin to inquire the same?

I just sent an email to Don, who we met a few years ago - really nice guy as I recall. Thanks for the idea.
Is there a tri club forum, email list, etc. where I can also post this ad? I hope others don't view this type of thing as spam as it really is a good mutual benefit opportunity.

I'd look for links on the ATC site and the Jack and Adams site for various triclubs.
