We are always looking to hear from all of you.  Please submit your story ideas to appear on the website and possibly some additional publications.  Here are the basic categories for stories.

*Feature article on a woman triathlete:  This doesn't necessarily have to be on an elite competitor, but about a woman who has a great story ... astounding, motivating, captivating to the reader, a story others can relate to.  Examples would be how a woman manages to fit in her training while holding down a full time job and her 4 kids, or a woman who has come back from an injury or illness and her story along the way, or a woman who has a triathlete husband and how they keep the competition between them under control, etc.

*Tips for women triathletes, new and veterans: Any new training tips that seem to work for you? New ways to cut down on your transition times?  Advice for a woman who wanted to do her first tri but is scared? 

*Reviews on products:  Have you found a new bike seat that works for you?  New jog bra or bike shorts you love?  A wetsuit that's actually easy to get out of?  If you've tried everything out there to find that perfect sports drink, let us know what you found works best, etc.

*Race reports & upcoming races:  It's always fun to hear about someone's experiences at a race ... good and bad.  What you've learned along the way.  But I'd also like to include upcoming races that you've done in the past and know are a blast to do.  The one thing I hate is reading about a race that is so much fun, but I have to wait a whole year to do it, so give us a heads up on something coming up that you've experienced and encourage others to join in.  This can be as big as Atlanta's Peachtree Road Race with 50-thousand people or the little neighborhood sprint tri that has a huge post race party that's so much fun people don't want to leave.
