Subject: RE: New Jersey State Triathlon - Sprint Distance : Official ThreadWelcome! The heat (at least for Sprint participants ) has only been an issue for one year - 2010. Every other year since 2006 has been really nice. Now if you are in one of the earlier waves you should be finishing the sprint right around 8:30 or 9AM - before any heat. I race in the Clydesdale division and we usually are in wave #13 or #14 (somewhere around there ). We didn't go off until around 9AM last year and finished right towards the beginning of the late morning early afternoon (10:30 ) sun. Other than that you should be fine. Make sure to soak up the atmosphere at Mercer County Park those two days because it is a first class operation and you'll have a ton of fun doing the race.
Good luck! |
