I hope to meet several of you next weekend. I won't be racing but will be volunteering on the water (in a purple kayak). I'm training for my first tri in September and want to get exposure to the flow of race days.

See you there.

Ryan

I'll be out there.

I've never done a tri before, but I did do the OW practice swim for the race which I think helped me. I have 2 friends from work Tri'ing with me ... They don't look at BT.

I'll be there. If anyone wants to try to meet up before or after the race, and is getting their race packet on Saturday then we can post race numbers on here as a way to try to find each other. I have found it very challenging to find people at a tri with that many people milling around.

And Ryan, I might be keeping an eye out for your purple kayak because I am definetely apprehensive about my first open water race!

I'll be there too...good luck to everyone...I did it last year if you have any questions. The bike is what surprised me the most, the "rolling" hills are not a ride in the park. I think the best way to meet up at an event, is to pick a location to meet after the race (like right before the awards).

Sweet. I look forward to meeting you guys.

Chris (or anyone else from last year),

Since you know the set-up from last year, what's your recommendation on where we meet. I right before the awards, as you mentioned, looks to be a good idea. Thoughts?

Is anyone going to be sporting BT gear at the race?

I'm going to be in my Mid Maryland Tri Club gear.  Since I'm the only one from my club racing, it should be easy to spot me.

I'm picking up my race packet on Saturday, so I'll post my number on this thread after I get it.

How about meeting up at the shower/sprinkler tent-thing at the start of the awards...last year it was right next to the kiddie pools full of soda. I will have a blue and black tri top on. You can also have the body markers put a "BT" on your left calf so we can spot each other before and during the race as well. Good luck, this is a fun race...it's the biggest in the state (by the # of participants) Make sure you arrive early...the walk from parking is a small hike.

I'll be there also, it will be nice to put some faces with names. I'll be wearing a black/red YMCA tri-top. There's about 10 of us from Wilmington coming up, it's a great race, one of my favorites.
Good luck to everyone!

Hi Gang!

I am coming out to cheer at Triangle and have a crew of racers staying at my house.   We will be having a grill-fest and beer-fest at my house in Raleigh after the race.  You are all invited--just let me know if you are interested, how many people might come with you, and I will post directions to my 'hood.

Good luck!!
