Expert  1210   Near Tampa |  Subject: RE: St. Anthony's Triathlon : Official ThreadGo DAD!!! Sue - no need to tell the rest of the story.... LOL At this point I am not sure how late I'll stay, the rest of my family is not so much into this other than cheering for me :-( Let's see how it goes. I am trying to be there for Meek & Mighty (spectator). |

Veteran 137 Lakeland, FL | Subject: RE: St. Anthony's Triathlon : Official Thread Anyone staying at this Marriott hotel My wife and I are trying to avoid taking two cars and we have two young children. My wave is late, and I need to be there early to set up in transition and she'll need the car to bring the kids (or take a cab). I'm either looking for a lift early in the am or suggestions on a better way to get there. First time at St Anthonys for me so I am not too sure about availability of cabs, shuttles and dont want to be late. |

| Member 36 | Subject: RE: St. Anthony's Triathlon : Official Thread I'm more worried about parking than wetsuit legal. I'm thinking about parking at Derby Lane and taking a cab to T-1. Wifey can pick me up after race with bike and take me back. Anyone have any ideas, parking garage, shuttle from some where? |

Expert 1210 Near Tampa | Subject: RE: St. Anthony's Triathlon : Official Thread from Derby lane you might as well ride, but if you still go for the cab, might as well pickup the previous logger and share the ride. |

Veteran 148 | Subject: RE: St. Anthony's Triathlon : Official Thread If your going to park somewhere try the Home Depot or Lowes off 22nd Ave. N. But make sure you call the cab ahead of time so your not waiting for them. Should only be a $8.00 cab ride as my friend lives close by and when we cab it home from downtown thats what we pay. If your staying at the Hotel, see if their shutlle will bring you down to the event. Im going to run into the same issue with my wife and kid. There really isnt a bunch of parking nearby as there will be 4000 additional cars ttying to park. On the website they do address parking/shuttles. For those that havent been to St. Pete they actually do have some decent event shuttle locations and scheudules. |

Typically not much. If the wind kicks up it can be wavey. Its a pretty protected cove |

Champion 7347 SRQ, FL | Subject: RE: St. Anthony's Triathlon : Official Thread Latest forecast says winds out of the SW. This means the swim *should* be pretty calm as the land and the pier will be protecting the inlet. |
