Monday, July 6th at 8:15PM - Monthly Club Meeting at Princeton Sports in Columbia, MD
Eagleman Wrap Up - MMTC had over 35 racers participate in Eagleman this year! We will be wrapping up with race reports and recognition of outstanding performances.
Karen Johnson will be our speaker, talking about Functional Manual Physical Therapy and how it compares and contrasts with Traditional Physical Therapy. She will also demonstrate her work on a volunteer from the club!
Karen received her certification as a Functional Manual Therapist from The Institute of Physical Art in 1997. After earning her Bachelor of Science Degree in Biology from The College of William and Mary in 1982, she graduated from the U.S. Army/Baylor University Master’s Degree Program in Physical Therapy in 1984. Karen taught for 10 years in the Functional Orthopedics series for the Institute of Physical Art and has 25 years of experience solving complex musculoskeletal problems. She co-founded The Center for Integrated Manual Therapies, LLC in March of 2000. Karen recently became a sponsor of MMTC!

Volunteers are needed to clean up our section of adopted highway, Route 108
between 29 and Columbia Road. To find out more about it, go our
Volunteering page and read the description
at the bottom of the page. After logging in, you can add yourself to the

IronGirl Brick-n-Pic
will be held August 8th. This is a multi-club, multi-facetted event
for guys and gals.
We do a run-bike-run brick workout on the IronGirl course
and then we have a picnic! This has always been a great time and all parts
of the brick and pic are optional. Go at your own pace - this is not a race
and no one will get left behind. Times will be posted as it gets closer!
News and Notes
NEW! Gateway Loop rides
on Tuesday evenings have started. Arrive after work when you can and enjoy
a few loops around Gateway with your fellow MMTC riders. This is a "do as you like ride"
- that's the beauty of Gateway, it's a circle so you can't get lost, you can't get dropped,
you can ride as long and as fast or slow as you like. We'll be parking on the dead end
cul de sac at the bottom of the hill on the east side of the loop. Look for the MMTC sign
and wear club colors to show your spirit!!
Open Water Swims
will be starting up again on Thursdays. The first one will be May 7th, water
temperature permitting. The water temp is usually in the mid 50s this early
in the season, so be prepared with a wetsuit (long sleeves recommended).
Distance of the swim is very flexible and the location has almost no boat
traffic. If you would like to participate, please
email Chip for directions,
as this location is not open to the public.

Princeton Sports to ride the IronGirl bike course. This ride will have a
