With the cold and snow that had hit the city Saturday, it was a great day to come inside and participate.</p>
<p>It was a tight race in the women's competition with only FOUR points separating the top two spots. On the strength of the fastest swim of the day for the men or the women, with 26 lengths, Heather Chandor captured first place with 230 points. Rina Robinson, with the fastest run of the day at 2.76 miles, came in a close second with 226 points. Rounding out the top three was Aynsley Kirshenbaum with 218 points.</p>
<p>The competition was even tighter in the men's race with only THREE points separating the top two spots! Jonathan Simon secured the top spot on the strength of a very strong swim and run, with 286 points. Returning indoor triathlon champion Holter Graham took second place in the men's competition with 283 points. Greg Dillon turned in a solid performance across all three disciplines to take third place with 253 points.</p>

Super Sunday had a whole new meaning for the 33 athletes who competed
at the JackRabbit Indoor Tri on February 1st. Racers traveled to the
JCC on the Upper West Side for the early morning competition. On the
womens' side, Megan Clarke swam an impressive 27 laps, to oulast second
place finisher Rina Robinson. Stephanie Chamberlain rounded out the top
three, with an impressive 16 mile performance on the bike. <a href="http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t187/maryarnold79/AG%20Indoor%20tri/IMGP1350.jpg"><img style="margin:0px 10px 10px 0px;float:left;width:224px;height:147px;" src="http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t187/maryarnold79/AG%20Indoor%20tri/IMGP1350.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br />The
race was equally close on the mens' side. Bouker Pool outpaced
JackRabbit's own Terry Moore, by just two laps in the pool and .65
miles on the bike, to claim the top spot on the podium. Marc Perez
clocked the best bike split of the race, with 20.26 miles, to finish in
third place.<br /><br />The series race will be held on February 22 at the
Prospect Park YMCA, in Park Slope Brooklyn. This will be the final
qualifying race before the series championships at Asphalt Green on
March 15th.

is a little hard to picture what the store will look like. I did my
first walk through of the space today, and it was a little scary. Not
only was there glitter and makeup on the door, there was hot pink
cobwebbing all over the ceiling.The AC system is hanging out of the
wall. There is a truly frightening bathroom situation going on; the
likes of which have not been seen since the first Evil Dead film.

</p>
<p>The temperature outside may be cold, but the competition at our Indoor Tri
series just keeps heating up! The most recent edition of popular race
rolled into Asphalt Green<a href="http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t187/maryarnold79/AG%20Indoor%20tri/IMGP1336.jpg"><img style="margin:0pt 0pt 10px 10px;float:right;cursor:pointer;width:167px;height:189px;" src="http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t187/maryarnold79/AG%20Indoor%20tri/IMGP1336.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a>onJanuary 11, 2009. 37 athletes swam, spun and sweat their way through the afternoon Racers dove in for ten minutes of intense swimming in A.G.’s famous pool. Then, it was out of T1 and into the spin room for a fast and furious thirty minutes. Finally it was out of T2, and downstairs to the treadmills for a speedy twenty minutes. Competitors wrapped up their afternoon with some cool drinks and plenty of post race discussion in the AG Café’s side, the competition was fierce.
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><a href="http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t187/maryarnold79/AG%20Indoor%20tri/IMGP1296.jpg"><img style="margin:0pt 10px 10px 0pt;float:left;cursor:pointer;width:165px;height:220px;" src="http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t187/maryarnold79/AG%20Indoor%20tri/IMGP1296.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a> The top spots were separated by only a handful of points. Alex
McCrery swam 30 laps, cycled 18.58 miles and ran 2.75 miles to edge out
William Capune for first place. Capune’s second place time featured the
best run split of the competition: a blazing 3.17 miles. Holter Graham
rounded out the top three, with his second podium finish of this season. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">For the women, the race was just as exciting. Barbara Rich, coming off a third place finish on December 12<sup>th</sup> , raced her way to<a href="http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t187/maryarnold79/AG%20Indoor%20tri/IMGP1312.jpg"><img style="margin:0pt 0pt 10px 10px;float:right;cursor:pointer;width:243px;height:183px;" src="http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t187/maryarnold79/AG%20Indoor%20tri/IMGP1312.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a>
first place. She swam 27 laps, cycled 18.62 miles and ran 2.29 miles.
Second place winner Pei-lei Guan posted and impressive bike split, with
19.27 miles. Julie Post, in her first indoor triathlon of the season,
finished strong in the third podium spot. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The next edition of the race will be on February 1<sup>st</sup> at the JCC on the Upper West Side.

<p>New York Times Critical Shopper, Mike Albo, stopped in and reviewed JackRabbit Union Square. here is a brief excerpt of what he had to say:</p>
<p style="padding-left:30px;font-size:1.1em;">"JackRabbit, the insistently back-to-basics and refreshingly steroid-free multisports store, is trying to strip away the layers of hype, Myoplex and filigree that weigh down the zillion-dollar-a-year industry. The store concentrates on providing functional clothes and equipment but still knows that its patrons want to look kind of cool. Being in a fashion capital, I guess you could say it is one of the first sports outfitters to ''edit.''</p>
<p style="padding-left:30px;font-size:1.1em;">...</p>
<p style="padding-left:30px;font-size:1.1em;">JackRabbit's message is what our P.E. teachers should have told us from the very beginning: being athletic doesn't mean you have to be an overcompetitive jerk. I wish I had come here for gym class. </p>
<p style="padding-left:30px;font-size:1.1em;"> </p>
<p style="padding-left:30px;font-size:1.1em;"><strong>VIBE</strong> -- A sports authority without the stadium rage, welcoming all levels of fitness. </p>
<p style="padding-left:30px;font-size:1.1em;"><strong>SERVICE</strong> -- No product pushing. Knowledgeable staff members are not secret mouthpieces for the Man, and they stick to the store philosophy: buy what you need. </p>
<p style="padding-left:30px;font-size:1.1em;"><strong>FOCUS</strong> -- Personalized shoe consultations. (It gets crazy on the weekends; go on a weekday morning or after lunch to beat the crowd.) </p>
<p style="padding-left:30px;font-size:1.1em;"><strong>THE EXTRA MILE</strong> -- The store offers programs and classes, including a spring triathlon training program starting in mid-May. For information and registration, go to jackrabbitsports.com. "</p>
