Hello Team K-Man,
Cycling News - Riders are enjoying social distance rides. For information on those rides you can visit: https://atascaderocycling.com or teamkman.org. Thank you Len, Steve, Bick, and others for organizing and keeping us all safe.
Swim News - Thank you Coach K-Man. On MWF morning at 6:00am Keith is writing up 2000 meter workouts with some extra credit attached. The whiteboard is there every day, so you can swim the workout anytime you want. Swim time is 30 minutes, but if no one is waiting for a lane you can stay in longer. Thank you all for being patient as Kennedy does its best to follow community guidelines as we safely move forward during this time.
Pool hours:
Monday - Friday 6:00am - 8:00pm
Saturday 8:00am - 6:00pm
Sunday 8:00am - 4:00pm
Run/Hike News - In between the moments of high smoke and heat there have been times to enjoy the outdoors on the Central Coast. Here is a short list of trails to explore:
Harmony Headlands State Park - out and back with beautiful views at the coast
San Simeon Point - Starting at San Simeon Cove and hiking north
Estero Bluffs State Park -This is a new State Park just north of Cayucos. 5 miles of oceanfront trails and beach exploring. Best to go during the ocean's low tide.
(tip-if you search Estero Bluffs State Park, Google has it in the wrong location)
Broderson Trailhead in Los Osos - Trail travels into Montana de Oro through the Morro Dunes Ecological Reserve.
Morro Bay Sand Spit - Miles of lonely beach

Here is a link to the challenge board. For more information about the challenge board email Doug Conner at doug6357@gmail.com
Strava Club - For those of you that are on Strava there is also a Team K-Man+3T Strava Club for you to join at this link: https://www.strava.com/clubs/3-t-k-man
General News - As reported earlier, the Board has extended all 2020 membership through 2021 and all swim coach dues have a 4 month credit to be applied when we start up deck coaching again.

June 2020
Team K-Man Board Meeting via ZOOM
May 31, 2020, 3:00 p.m. to 3:45 p.m. Attendees: Tracy, Louise, Keith, Skip and Tara
Team K-Man Finances During COVID-19 Shelter at Home
- The following two motions were brought up via email in the last few weeks as a result of the shelter at home/social distancing measures that have been in place since March 20, 2020:
- Motion to extend Team K-Man 2020 membership through to the end of 2021 was passed unanimously.
- Most Team K-Man swimming members paid for the first part of the year’s swimming dues which usually cover the months of Jan - June. Since the pool was closed as of March 20th, a Motion was presented to extend the time period that paid swimming coaching includes based upon when we can return to group swimming with coaching. The motion passed unanimously.
Mike Aiello
-Mike has resigned his position on the Team K-Man board because he is no longer involved with the group. Tara will forward his email to the group.
Swimming
-Tracy brought up some of the issues that Team K-Man may wish to consider, including:
- reaching out to Kennedy Club regarding reopening - date, type of re-opening conditions (should people have the option to ‘accept their own personal risks’ of Covid vs. setting up conditions whereby people must follow social distancing guidelines/procedures)
- potential organized open water swimming at Avila Beach. David Strybel and Tracy checked out the conditions and see a good potential for a regular K-Man group swim at Avila Beach.
- Keith said he would personally speak to Kevin Kennedy to get some insight, share some ideas and get back to Team K-Man board any information that he can get.
Cycling
- Skip reported that TTT has resumed posting weekday rides and that most riders participating in those rides appear to not be social distancing and those who do have concerns are riding to the side or a distance off the back.
- Skip will reach out to Jonathan to see if he will get Tempadero Saturday rides posted again, and if so, when. Also he will ask Jonathan if he is going to keep the Atascadero Cycling website up and running and if so whether Team K-Man can inform it’s membership that the site is a resource for route information as posted in previous weekday and weekend rides.
-Louise will contact Len C. to determine whether or not Len will resume posting the Team K-Man Saturday rides and if so when. She will also inquire about whether the issue of social distancing will be addressed in those ride postings.
ACTION ITEMS:
- Keith to speak with Kevin Kennedy to discuss Club re-opening information (DONE):
Kevin Kennedy is hopeful to open June 15th. Not many details. See Kevin Kennedy’s letter to members.
- Louis to speak with Len (DONE): Len was already planning on re-activating the Saturday Team K-Man ride this coming Saturday. He will be encouraging social distancing amongst riders and will address that issue in his ride notice posting.
- Skip to speak with Jonathan re: Atascadero cycling site.
- Tracy to look into organized open water swims with David Strybel UPDATE: David and
Tracy went to Avila Beach Tues., June 2 and were joined by Bart. Water was 60 degrees and quite calm. Overall, it was a great swim. They are planning on going back this Thursday at 10 am.
- Any results of above action items as well as the newly passed motions from this meeting will be shared with Mark Glenesk (team communicator) to be shared with Team K-Man members.
- Tara to forward Mike Aiello’s email (DONE)

=====Karen Aydelott=======
You want inspiring? You want a woman whose story needs to be shouted from the rooftops as a source of inspiration for all of us? As an Ironman, she is among the grittiest athletes in the world. Karen manages to hide under an extremely modest and easygoing demeanor, the determination, tenacity and true grit of an incredible champion.
At the age of +65 , she has completed 26 Ironmans over the years, including 12 in Kona. She won the 50 to 54 age group in 1997, finishing the race in 11:49:56. In 2006 she was hit by a car while training on her bike and spent the next two years going through the ordeal of trying to save her ankle and foot.
"We tried to save my ankle and foot for two years, at which point there wasn’t enough to save, so I asked to have my leg amputated," she remembers. "By then there was nothing I was going to be able to do that I wanted to do. I really wanted to be at least be able to ride my bike. I haven’t looked back."
Somehow Aydelott managed to bike, run, and swim. She credits the Challenged Athletes Foundation with helping her to get where she is now. They helped her get a running prosthesis and have been invaluable in teaching her the ins and outs of competing with a prosthetic.
What’s even more amazing about Aydelott is the fact that it would be very easy to be pretty negative about life. We’re talking about a Kona champion who lost her leg and, while that’s tough, it was during that ordeal that she faced another even more devastating family tragedy.
Rather than wonder what else life was going to throw at her, Aydelott hasn’t slowed down at all.
We’ve all heard that saying "it’s about the journey." Karen Aydelott is living proof of that one.
