Lone Star Triathlon Festival

Keith posted on HRTC that they are working on an Olympic or quarter-iron too, but details aren't done yet.

 If it doesn't come through, I'll probably run the sprint! 

I'll be working at the event in some form or fashion so I don't know if I'll be able to race, but I will be there!

Its right before IMAZ, maybe the week before? So, if anything just the sprint.

The Olympic Distance page is posted now!

Texasyogi, this will be a GREAT place to do your first tri.  I did my first tri there in 2005.  Back then it was poorly managed by a different race director, but hooked me into this great sport all the same.  This new RD has a STELLAR reputation; you are going to enjoy a first-class event. 

So, are we all gonna register on November 1 to get the best bib #s? 

When the race website warns about wind, you know you MIGHT have a little problem. I have never ridden down there, but I do go fishing down there quite a bit and I know just how brutal the wind can be at times. The only comfort is knowing that everyone else is going through the same thing that you are!  

There might be wind, there might not. Some days the gulf and its winds are perfectly flat. You can't predict it, but Prodrive, its not anything worse than what the winds up here in North Dallas have been the last 2 days.

It was 25mph on my run yesterday, it was brutal. Galveston's are usually not that strong unless there is a storm. There is a chance for winds though, but I don't see why it should be something to be scared of. 

You may want to check a Farmer's Almanac for past wind conditions.
