Adapt, modify, adjust - words we frequently use as athletes to describe our race strategies. Sometimes they describe daily life, but they don't usually describe daily life for you, and your family and friends, and your co-workers, and your neighbors, and well, everyone, all at the same time.
We hope that you and your people are doing as well as possible to adapt, modify, and adjust to our current situation with COVID-19.
For your Edinboro Triathlon organizers, preparation began for #ET2020 as soon as the last athlete crossed the finish line last year. We want nothing more than to convene at Pat Crawford Beach this June to celebrate The 33rd Annual Edinboro Triathlon. But actually, we do want more - to do so with confidence in the safety of our athletes, volunteers, emergency crews, spectators, and neighbors. As you know, circumstances are changing daily, even hourly. We will continue to collaborate with the Borough of Edinboro & @usatriathlon, and follow guidelines from the @eriecohealth and the @cdcgov.
Adapt, modify, adjust. Now, we'll add patience. As triathletes ourselves, we completely understand the desire for transparency from your races. We have just over 11 weeks to ET2020. As of now, registration remains open. Although our standard policy is no allowance of deferrals (with the exception of requests due to medical reasons) and no refunds, should The 33rd Annual Edinboro Triathlon need to be postponed until next season due to implications from COVID-19, all entries will automatically defer to #ET2021. This is in the best interest of both our athletes and the continuation of The Edinboro Triathlon itself. Adapt, modify, adjust, patience. We strive for that patience in ourselves, and we kindly ask that of our athletes and the community.
We wish you continued strength in your training, and, most importantly, in your lives.
