Subject: RE: Belews Lake International Triathlon : Official ThreadI did the sprint last year and really liked it- well run and a nice course. I think it is kinda far from Raleigh to go for a sprint (the race is NOT in Greensboro like they say on the website- it is way north from there- I think it took me 90 or so mins to drive there from Cary and I wasn't noodling along at 5:30 in the morning ) so had decided not to do this again as a sprint, but then doing a 2 loop OLY didn't appeal to me either so I decided to skip the OLY this year. Some people like the TT swim start but I prefer mass starts (they are fun and they cut down that waiting in line...and they make it easier to guage how you are doing later in the race ). So to me, just too many factors weighing against it. But the race itself was really nice! |
