Default Pacific Coast Triathlon

Sept 7, 2008

1/2 mi. swim, 13 mi. bike, 3 mi. run

Anyone doing this? Sounds like fun... probably look into it next year. Might be fun to go watch.

Yeah, we did it one year. Very fast sprint tri. I hadn't swam so hard in my whole life. I think I was in the last group coming out of the water. I got 9th out of 33 in my age group.

I'm going to go scope it out this weekend, I'm game for next year! I've got a buddy doing the Malibu Triathlon next weekend - should be equally as cool!
