Hello CTCers!
Please see below for some important updates and upcoming events...
Huge thank you to Shawn Hughes and Joanne Gilchrist for hosting the CTC Summer Party! Everyone had fun, and it was great to see everyone there.
Our Athlete of the Month is Mitch Harrell! Mitch has always been very active in both CTC training and racing events, and we appreciate everything he does for the club. Join him on one of the CTC evening runs, early morning swims, or the PV track workouts during the week. He recently had a great finish at the Tri for Real in Rancho Seco earlier this month and is training for another event in August. Please join me in congratulating Mitch on his accomplishments and continued dedication to the sport (and the club!)!
We still have two club races coming up! We encourage everyone to sign up or volunteer for the Ironman 70.3 Northern California and the Mt. Shasta Tinman.
We are planning a Tinman Takeover at the Mt. Shasta Tinman! CTC members who sign up are eligible for a reimbursement of up to $155 per member. You must start the race to be eligible. If you have registered, please send a confirmation of your registration to treasurer@
There will be a spaghetti feed on September 5th for CTC members who are participating in the Mt. Shasta Tinman, hosted by a few of the CTC Board Members. If you are interested in attending, please let me know so we can get an idea of how much spaghetti to make!
The Bidwell Bump is coming up on October 3rd and 4th! If you're interested in signing up, the discounted fee deadline is September 8th, and the online registration deadline is September 30th.
This month's sponsor is Fleet Feet Chico. We thank them for their continued sponsorship of CTC!
Make sure you check out all the other training opportunities with the club!
The uniform store for 2026 is still open! Check the CTC website or the CTC Facebook page for more information.
May the waters be clear, the wind be at your back, and keep the rubber side down.
