Subject: RE: Colonial Beach Triathlon I've done it a couple times (last time was 2006, i think ). Its a nice, smallish race. No big frills or anything. The swim isn't bad. I had trouble with the current the last time, but its nothing too hard. The bike has some rolling hills, but isn't impossible. The run is mind-numbingly flat, and not very shaded. But there are retired folks out and and about in golf carts cheering you on. Afterwards they serve Little Caesars pizza in a church hall.
I've always had a fun time at this race..i'm planning on doing it this year if i can fit it in between family obligations. |
