Glad to have a tune up early since Lonestar will be my first race since 2007 (I have two more kids in my house somehow since then.)  |

The timing relative to Lonestar is what appeals to me most. Glad to hear they put on a good race elsewhere too... that's always a plus. Edited by Bill 2009-09-15 3:35 PM |

Pro 4824 Houston | Subject: RE: New Early Season (2010) Race- Tune up for Lonestar Unfortunately with 5 kids I don't have a lot of disposable income. This year I did 2 tri's two weeks apart but my season was shorter. Next year I'd like to start earlier and maybe do one event per month. I will likely choose one of the two for my first Olympic but now I'm not sure which one. The fact that they will be on the same weekend in 2011 like Smillford said is CRAZY! |

Depending on the marketing of Gateway to the Bay (being an Alcatraz qualifier), this may be a tougher crowd to race with... Some really fast guys like fatty will be representing his sponsor OUL... ain't that right buddy? Lonestar is a great family friendly, established race... BTW, You are not fully populated!

Master 1790 Tyler, TX | Subject: RE: New Early Season (2010) Race- Tune up for Lonestar It's an Alcatraz qualifier, but it looks like you have to win your AG or overall to qualify. The funny thing is, and in major contrast to the Kona lottery, it's relatively easy to get into Alcatraz through their lottery! Brian |

Pro 4824 Houston | Subject: RE: New Early Season (2010) Race- Tune up for Lonestar I agree. I think the Gateway Oly would be a bit too intense for me. Maybe I'll do the sprint and LS Oly as Fatty suggested. I have a sitter for this Tuesday. Brothers anyone??? |

Champion 6973 marietta | Subject: RE: New Early Season (2010) Race- Tune up for Lonestar it won't sell out like the marathon did. i can't remember if any of the three races at lone star sold out last year but i just checked at the 1/4 IM thread from this year and the RD posted on 11 feb it was 3/4 full. if that helps.... |

Thanks for the info John - that will help the budget to be able to wait a couple of weeks - registering this late for the US Open Olympic has let the price run up to $150... Luckily I think I have a $20 coupon code for it! I didn't want a repeat of the Houston Marathon either - waiting one day was too long... |
