Subject: Luke AFB Triathlon - Sept. 26Has anyone ever done this tri out at Luke Air Force Base? I found information on this year's Luke AFB triathlon lurking in the weeds on the Luke's recreation page: Luke AFB TriathlonDate: 26 Sept 09 Time: 0700-1200 Location: Silverwings Pool Cost: $20 Military & $45 Non-Military Brief Description: Bike, Run & Swim to compete in this year’s Triathlon. Prizes will be awarded with the top three finishers in each category. Timing system will be used again this year since it was a great incentive for new participants last year. Tri-gear will sponsor us again. Registration Deadline: 18 Sept 09 - 623-856-6267 or 623-856-6538 Dean and I did the Holloman AFB (New mexico ) triathlon last year, and it was a blast. I even won my age group (which tells you how small of an event it was! ). But they had neat long sleeve shirts and a very nice pasta dinner afterwards. If all Air Force tri's are like that, then Luke might be a nice little race for triathletes looking for a change from Nathan's, or for newbies who aren't sure about doing an open-water tri. |
