Hello From Team Magic!
We are affiliated with several clubs in our two "home states" of Alabama and Tennessee. A few weeks ago, we sent you information on the Greater Nashville Athletic Club. Below is information on another great triathlon club that is actively involved not only in the Old Hickory Lake Triathlon but many other events and they host a very popular kids triathlon in Hendersonville. Read on for more info on this club and how you can take part...
Dear Local Athlete,
Congratulations on your recent athletic achievements – whether this season marked your first taste of competition or your fiftieth, we applaud your commitment to living a healthy lifestyle. Right now you’re probably planning your 2009 season…and wondering how you can make it better than ever.
Make us an integral part of your plans.
Who are we? We’re the Hendersonville Endurance Athletic Team (Team HEAT). We’re people just like you…we have jobs and families….but we also share a passion for cycling, running, swimming, and staying active, fit, and healthy.
We want to help you meet – even exceed – your goals for next season.
We’re working to create a community of athletes spanning all abilities, goals, and endurance disciplines. Whether you’re just starting out – or you’re a competitive age-grouper, HEAT is the perfect group with whom to share, learn, and refine your abilities.
A team. A club. A Network.
When you’re a member of HEAT, you’re part of a team. We have a weekly workout schedule, attend races as both athletes and team support, and we get together socially (we have an awesome end-of-season / Christmas party).
You’re never alone at a race when you’re part of team HEAT!
Sure, you can work out with anyone. But we’re not just anyone. Our members have taken part in everything from local 5k races to Master’s Swim meets to Ironman triathlons. Our depth of experience, willingness to help, and wealth of training opportunities will keep you motivated, on track, and ready to race!
Beginners Welcome.
If you’re new to endurance sports, HEAT is the group for you.
Ever wanted to try a triathlon? Run a 5k, 10k, or even a marathon? Maybe open water swimming appeals to you. Or maybe you’re just someone who wants to get fit and live a healthy lifestyle.
You can do it! And we can help.
Every member in our group had to make the leap…from unsure beginner with a hundred questions…to race veteran with a thousand questions. We’ve been there and done that…and we can help you, whatever your goals.
Interested? Still unsure? Well, how about this…

ACME Multisports – Mark Evans and Allen Curtis have created nothing short of triathlete heaven. Anything you need – from bikes to running shoes to nutrition to a huge selection of apparel – ACME has it! Best part? HEAT members enjoy 10% off every in-stock item!
