Flowing Lake Tri

I am going to do the Flowing Lake race. I live nearby so I am exited to not have an hour drive. I've never done this race (I am a new guy to this sport too) Tomorrow at Lake Padden will be my second race. By the time Flowing Lake comes it will be my 5th or 6th.

Tips: This web site has been really helpful for me. There's a lot here! I use the search tool often to look at old discussions about topics I have questions on. Regarding Flowing Lake; the water should be nice and warm by Sept. unless summer ends next month.  

Getting sick is no fun.  I hope you start feeling better soon.

See you at Flowing Lake!

I did this one last September. It's a great race in a nice out-of-the-way place. You can camp at the race site the night before (definitely make reservations) if you like. There are even a few cabins to rent, I think (again, check with the parks dept). This race is limited to 200 entrants by the parks department, and it filled up last year, so if you haven't registered already, DO SO NOW!

I put together a map-my-ride for the bike course that's publicly viewable (and I think there's a map-my-tri out there as well) -- it IS a bit hilly, so be ready for that. The run is completely in the park, and is two full laps of the perimeter road (again, hilly, but short).

I'm registered for this race, but won't be able to do it, so I'll be giving my entry away at some point in the not-too-distant future (yes, I've already arranged with the RD, who is a good friend of mine, to be able to transfer my entry). I'll be doing the same for Satsop as well really soon (look for it next week).
