Hey Hoosiers: what's your first race this year? (Page 2)

I did the Carmel Sprint and the Mini already this year. I'm already in training for Steelhead, and may just have to do Morse Park Sprint. I think I'm just going to volunteer for the Eagle Creek Indy series this year. I'll also be doing another Mini this fall. Hope your's goes well.

My first ever will be the valpo sprint on July 11th

OK, I lied, I just found out the Indy Sprint this weekend is a MERCRS race, so I guess I have to do it to help out the team. So, add that to my list.

Warsaw will be my first then its on to Muncie in July....  Ran the mini and have been hooked ever since.  Good luck to you.

I'm doing Warsaw then Muncie.  After that?

My first tri ever is going to be the Eagle Creek Sprint on Aug. 22.  I am a little nervous for the swim but I am super excited to get out there.  I think that it is going to be a lot of fun and lead to some longer races in the future.

Best first Oly Tri for anyone...I recommend Lavaman in Hawaii near the end of March. 

Swim is a warm,open, calm water swim.  You can see the bottom the whole time....probably even a turtle or two.

Bike:  Fast out and back on the Queen K with nice rolling hills, although for those in Indiana long 1 mile slow climbs are a little harder to train for.

Run:   1 loop,  lava field,  road, beach..ocean nearby for much of the run.

About half of the field is TNT'ers from the west coast.
