The 12th Annual Silver
Strand Half Marathon & 5K
is Sunday, November 13,
2011. Run along the Strand
from Coronado to Imperial
Beach! Coronado is located
across the bridge from downtown San Diego. Imperial
Beach is located twenty miles
south of downtown San Diego, and this year, we have
two of our Coyotes participating in this late season run,
which is also the start of running season. Lori Ann Stevens and Brian Turner will be
representing the Coyotes in
this race and hoping to capitalize on their summer work
to do a PR. Silver strand is
considered one of the fastest
half marathons in San Diego
due to it’s relative flat course,
however don’t let that fool
you, the strand is also famous
for its wind. Being that it
parallels the ocean shoreline,
you never know if you will
get cross, head or tail winds.
Lets hope our coyotes get a
nice tail wind that propels
them into victory and PR’s.
Lori Ann will be coming off
another Half Marathon at the
Nike Women’s Only half
marathon in San Francisco,
and will be looking to improve on her time there . We
wish our coyotes the best of
luck in this race, and don’t
forget to give the crowd and
fellow competitors a bit of
our club love by giving our
famous Ahuuuuuu’s as you
pass by or get passed.

Ironman Cozumel
2011 Sponsors
The 2011 Ironman Cozumel
will take place on Sunday
November 27, and this year,
we have 2 of our Coyotes
participating in this great
event. Alfredo Zepeda will be
competing in his first Ironman Cozumel, but his 4th
overall ironman, and will be
using his experience to try
and get an edge on the competition. Jose Luis Garcia will
be taking on his first ever
ironman in his home country.
Both Coyotes will be in full
representation and we wish
them the best. The ironman
Cozumel, has quickly become
one of the favorite destinations for triathletes, with
beautiful non wetsuit swim
that mimics the beauty of the
Hawaii ironman swim course,
it is simply spectacular. The
bike course is a two loop circuit that although flat, challenging with it cross and head
winds pounding you with
little relieve or cover. The run
is a 2 loop course and it takes
you through the beautiful
downtown of Cozumel, and
it is said to have an incredible
spectator support through-
out, making it impossible to
not finish this race once you
make it to the run. After the
Ironman, there is plenty of
partying and relaxation in
order. Best of luck to both of
you and don’t forget to give
Mexico a couple of ahuuuus

Coaching Tips— 7 Steps for Successful Swimming
Rest is one of the most important
yet most overlooked aspects of
training, especially as a goal race
approaches. Many athletes feel
the only way they will improve is
to push every day. Always remember, however, that your easy
days are just as important as your
hard days. This is called the overload principle. After a hard day at
the track (overload) a day or two
of relaxed recovery runs will allow your body to superVolume 6,Issue 11
compensate from the effort you
put in on your hard day.
Thus, you will be stronger and
slightly better than you were prior
to your hard workout. With a
proper balance of overload and
recovery, your fitness will improve
at a steady rate. However, without
enough rest you will start to fatigue. This fatigue can produce a
lack of motivation, sickness or
injury. Many athletes prefer a consistent, regimented training pro-
gram. Indeed most triathletes must
adhere to a structured training
schedule to fit their workouts into
an already busy day. However,
knowing you will be on the track
every Wednesday, rain or shine,
can start to take a mental toll after
a few months. You still need your
hard run workout, but don't be
afraid to throw in some variety.

Classic took place on Sept.
incident, Juan Carlos was back
in uniform and racing. His
emotions could not be held
back as Juan Carlos was even
seen smiling while swimming.
We are not sure how he managed this incredible feat, but
Daniel Galvin 2:20:38—PR
17th 2011 and this year we had
two of our coyotes participating in this race for the first
time. Our first Coyote to cross
the finish line was Daniel Galvin who set a PR at the Olympic distance with an amazing
time of 2:20:38. Daniel had a
breakthrough season this year
and was in peak shape for this
race as well. Daniel was in the
most competitive age group at
this race with the top 3 of his
age group also placing top 3
overall in the race. Daniels result was good for a podium
finish coming in at 5th place.
The second of our Coyotes to
cross the finish line and with a
very special and emotional
meaning for him was Juan Carlos Baca, who also set a PR on
this course for an Olympic
distance with a time of 2:52:10
and first time he broke the 3
Hr. barrier. Juan Carlos had a
very critical accident in June
that almost cost him his life.
Just 4 months after that horrific

needed to get away from his
bike demons and the poor little
soul needed a new bike, to
which he ended up getting a
Cervelo P3, and we are still
trying to determine if it was the
bike, the emotion or the adrenaline that propelled this athlete
to ridiculous bike splits, because
we all know that Juan Carlos

that was old news). Regardless
of what the drive was, Juan
Carlos smile as evident on his
finish photo was priceless, and
a definite sign that he is back to
triathlons and in full mode.
Juan Carlos has since taken a
position for a very prestigious
company in Europe and will be
moving permanently to the EU.
He will be our first European
Coyote and promises to represent the Coyotes colors in another country. We wish him
luck in his new endeavors and
know that you will always have
