"Meet BATC Board Members"
Today's feature - Board Secretary - Lilly Wynn
Member since: 2016
Occupation: Physical Therapist
Why I joined BATC: Wanted to start my journey towards a full IronMan distance and desperately needed some guidance
What I like about being a member: The support. This is an automatic group of people who have been there and will help answer your questions, push you, work out with you, drink with you, help you stuff your face after a race. They don't care if you have chain grease, or road rash, or smell like the Chesapeake. I'm really proud of the races I've done, and there is no way I would have done it without this group
Brief triathlon history: While I was in PT school, a group of "friends" convinced me to run my first half marathon. Later that year they were all volunteering at DC Nations Tri. I figured....I was a college swimmer. And I can make it through 13.1 miles. How hard can biking be? Did the Olympic and I was hooked. Since then I've done a variety of local races, including IronMan Maryland in 2017.
Advice to others who have not joined a club: I think all athletes need a team. If you have a swim team, or a bike club, or a running club that's great. I personally find a triathlon team for triathlons to be better than any of those individually. But honestly, just join any of the 4 teams so you have support; whatever works best for you!
Why join BATC: As a completely unbiased 3rd party, because we're the best! We support all levels of triathlete, and work hard to make our club what our members need to be.

2019 BATC Annual Meeting this Wednesday
Make sure you've marked your calendar. The BATC 2019 Board of Directors election will take place this Wednesday, January 16th at 6:30pm at Falls Road Running Store (6247 Falls Rd, Baltimore, MD 21209). To cast your vote, be sure you've paid your dues. Link and details in the paragraph below. There are several positions opening up this year on the Board as Luke, Katie, and Scott are "retiring" after many years of volunteer service. See the descriptions and directions below my signature for more information about running for a position.
At the meeting, in addition to the election business, we'd love you to join us to share your ideas and provide feedback to the board members to take with them moving forward. Also, remember to come early to shop. Store owner Pete Mulligan is extending our BATC discount to 15% for the evening. The club will provide PIZZA and sweet treats.
