Welcome Back!

Hi everyone!

The Winter 2012 session is UNDERWAY! The scheduling is the same as it always has been, except for a new addition: a functional strength and flexibility class after Saturday spins given by Colette to help us target problem areas and lengthen as well as strengthen key muscles needed for our sport. Colette has a lot of experience and interest in this area and we believe she will be able to provide us with relevant and important tips and exercises :) . See the Facilities and Scheduling info for more details. The rubric in the FAQ  section gives a basic outline of the scheduling too.

Registration, as in last semester, is on-line and in person. THERE ARE STILL 30 SPACES LEFT! Membership prices are approx $180 for students (due to the QST increase) and $265 for non members, which includes facility access during training hours.

Welcome Back pizza and beer will NEXT Thursday January 19th after swim practice in Thomlinson Hall. Don’t miss it! It’s a great chance to meet everyone and have great food. We’ll also be selling old uniform stock so come on over and stock up on some bike shorts! and uniform fitting will be at the end of the month.

More social and training related stuff to happen this session so keep your eyes and ears open! Some of the memorable events: Kona Brunch and Ile Bizard Blizzard Run (Feb 19), Apartment Crawl (TBA), Spring Fling (end of April…TBA), potentially ice-skating/tobogganning and/or sugaring off?.

We’re also looking for interested and committed members to join Council. If you’re interested in contributing, namely for uniforms and gear or maybe even have an eye for leadership… contact Annelise!

Looking forward to training with you in 2012!

How to join the Yahoo Group using your everyday email

This guide is for newcomers and old members alike. Here’s how to use the Yahoo Group with an email you already use (instead of making a yahoo email that you will never check just to join our group). It looks long, but it should take about 5 minutes.

First, go to: http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/McGill-Triathlon/.

Next, click on Join This Group! and then on Create New Account.

Now fill out the form. As your alternate email, enter your regular email, the one you check every day! The yahoo ID you pick is not important, just remember your password.

Click on continue.

Next, click on verify after the email address you want to use for the group.

In the following page, click on verify now. Next, go to that email address and open the email from Yahoo Account Services. In it, you’ll find a link to verify your email address. Click on it, and now your regular email address is ready to be used in the Yahoo Group!

**VERY IMPORTANT** Make sure you set your regular email address as the primary one!

Next, click this link to return to the MTC Yahoo Group: http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/McGill-Triathlon/

Again, click on “Join this group”.

Now set the email address you want to use as the primary one.

Now scroll down a bit and you’ll be prompted to write a message to the owner. Write something flattering!

I suggest you pick “Individual Email” for the “Message Delivery Option”.

Enter the verification and click on join! At the very most in a few hours you will be verified and in on all the action!
