The teams without divisions noted above have still not submitted a full roster to USAT, so club reps please make sure you submit your roster as soon as possible. Prizes are being awarded this year based on divisions, so don't miss out.

Next up is the bike session. The session just opened for entering results today and there are already several clubs in the mix. This should be interesting. 

Firstly, Happy New Year to everyone and best wishes for a successful 2010 filled with personal bests of all kinds.

Secondly, what's up with the session end dates?

The Swim, Bike and Run Sessions officially end on the last day of the month, but club reps have an additional 48 hours to enter results. For the Swim Session that just ended, reps will have until midnight on January 2 (local time) to enter all miles for December.

The same thing will happen for the Bike and Run Sessions.

Regular visitors to the site will see the new session on the 1st of the month, but wil not see any miles for their club (or any club) until after the 48 hour grace period has ended and their club rep can start entering for the new session.
