Hopefully they've improved the event. I hear the event will be much better than the last 2 years. The big complaint has been the bike course. This year, the bike course is 3 loops around the lake and the run is on the trail on an out and back. I guess all our complaints last year paid off. |

Veteran 371 Lincoln, Nebraska | Subject: RE: Black Squirrel With the bike looping around the lake on the road, and the run on the trail, you won't get a flatter triathlon! Good news for me on the run!!! |

Member 168 Omaha, NE | Subject: RE: Black Squirrel I'm thinking I might do this one this year. I've done it the last two years as the bike leg on a team. I am SO glad they are finally changing the bike course this year. |

Veteran 329 Beatrice NE. | Subject: RE: Black Squirrel I'm in. Anybody know for sure how long the run is? The registration flier I got says 6.2 miles but the website says 3.1, I think. Looking forward to the race. |

Veteran 257 Iowa | Subject: RE: Black Squirrel I will be there. I had my first race at Papillion a few weeks ago and I am now looking forward to a little longer race. The longer swim will be interesting for me and you are right, this course will be extremely flat. I look forward to meeting some of you that will be there. |

Veteran 192 Omaha, NE | Subject: RE: Black Squirrel Ok, I'm in not too. Got asked to do the swim portion for a relay team. |

Veteran 371 Lincoln, Nebraska | Subject: RE: Black Squirrel Let's all meet up somewhere at the race. I'd like to put some faces/names with the BT screen names  Oh, and I'm sure the run will be 6.2. They wouldn't screw up the registration form....I hope! Edited by fifthcircle 2009-07-29 10:36 AM |

Regular 59 | Subject: RE: Black Squirrel I'm in as well. I'll probably wear my Papio tri shirt from this year (turquoise blue). I'm also excited that they changed the bike course. That was near suicide last year. |

Veteran 371 Lincoln, Nebraska | Subject: RE: Black Squirrel Well, if we are just remembering t-shirts...I'll have on a black GAS SUCKS ride a bike shirt, with Xtreme Wheels info on the back... Probably easier to spot the orange Lemond w/ orange bar tape -Kurt |

| Regular 82 | Subject: RE: Black Squirrel Ah can't decide if I want to do this one. The swim and bike aren't too bad but the run.... (although I ran 6 miles for the 1st time yesterday) I hate to enter the race if I can't do the distance without walking. The reviews don't look that good but it looks they are revamping the event. |

There isn't anything wrong with walking when needed (I'm sure I'll probably walk some). And, great job running 6 yesterday!! That's a big accomplishment...It's a lot of fun when you know you're improving  |

Veteran 113 Fremont | Subject: RE: Black Squirrel I have a relative that will be in town for this, but he is interested in doing only the run portion... If anyone would like to team up (or know someone who does), please shoot me a note. Thanks! |

Member 168 Omaha, NE | Subject: RE: Black Squirrel My hubby signed up and I'll be there to cheer him on. My bike and swim training have been hard to squeeze in over the last few weeks.  Not sure what I'll be wearing yet, but I'll try to cheer loud for everyone that I can! |

Regular 59 | Subject: RE: Black Squirrel They finally posted the course http://parksandrec.councilbluffs-ia.gov/documents/Black-Squirrel-Ro... No crazy two way traffic on the trails. Yeah! |

| Subject: RE: Black Squirrel Looking forward to the new bike route. I enjoyed the run around the lake last year. Too bad that they couldn't do both the bike and run around the lake, which would consolidate the aid/water stations. Well, at least the run is moving to the tight quarters of the bike trail - now we can really step on the gas pedal on the bike. |
