Pro 4824  Houston | Subject: RE: Official Bridgeland Triathlon thread.....(maybe not official) You know I'll be there. This is my first Athena race. They have categories for under 40 and over 40 so I guess us 40 year olds have our own cat??? I am excited and know it will be a blast but the point to point swim has me a bit geeked! |

| Regular 56 | Subject: RE: Official Bridgeland Triathlon thread.....(maybe not official) I will be there as well. I have a good friend that lives in the neighborhood and he will be entering too. I am looking forward to it. Also, in case you didn't know, the website has updated info and other things posted. |

Pro 4824 Houston | Subject: RE: Official Bridgeland Triathlon thread.....(maybe not official) More like rear view mirror somehow attached to his swim cap  That's ok he can cheer us on after his massage with beer in hand while we're getting on our bikes. |

Master 1318 Houston | Subject: RE: Official Bridgeland Triathlon thread.....(maybe not official) I'm more in need of a GPS system so I stay on course  Your logs are looking strong, you have some major bike mileage under your belt! Enjoy your first tri! Speaking of beer Keri... anyone know if they're going to have any at this race? Past few I've been deprived of a post race beer!

Extreme Veteran 787 The Woodlands/Magnolia, TX. | Subject: RE: Official Bridgeland Triathlon thread.....(maybe not official) i'll be there. i'm signed up to race but i'm coming off the disabled list this monday so i've gotta get my arse in gear. 3 1/2 weeks off is no bueno. if for some reason i decide not to race, i'll be volenteering. i'm really looking forward to it either way!! |

Extreme Veteran 787 The Woodlands/Magnolia, TX. | Subject: RE: Official Bridgeland Triathlon thread.....(maybe not official) anyone know anything about the lake that we'll be swimming in? i've never been there before. is it a typical subdivision retention lake where it's about 20-30 acres and about 4ft deep all the way around? i'm hoping to make it out there next weekend to scope it out. |

I'll be there, this will be my first ever Tri. It wouldnt bother me one bit if this thing is only 4ft deep all the way around. I would doubt it though. I'm not the strongest swimmer. We shall see how it goes. |

Extreme Veteran 348 Houston, Texas | Subject: RE: Official Bridgeland Triathlon thread.....(maybe not official) I am really feeling good about this race. My cycling has come a long way. I'm running 6&change miles. My swimming still needs to come together, though. Hopefully it will be a beautiful day. |

Veteran 281 | Subject: RE: Official Bridgeland Triathlon thread.....(maybe not official) My friend that lives in Bridgeland said that it is shallow. He has gone swimming in it, even though they prohibit it. I have only seen it. He told me on Monday that he actually swam out quite a ways and stood up, but he is 6'2". So take that for what it is worth. Maybe all the tall people can run the swim route. |

Enjoy your first tri! Speaking of beer Keri... anyone know if they're going to have any at this race? Past few I've been deprived of a post race beer! I am pretty sure Michelob Ultra is one of the sponsors so that is good news. Regardless I will be providing beer via cooler on wheels to make up for shrugging my beer duties at the Flatlands last weekend. |

Maybe all the tall people can run the swim route. i guess being able to stand isn't a bad thing, especially for first timers in OW. if it's that shallow, i bet the water's gonna pretty pretty dern warm. i just hope it's cleaner than the water in my hood. there's always storm debris in it. either way, i'm sure it will be fun. |
