Champion  7821     Brooklyn, NY |  Subject: Cape Henlopen Triathlon : Official ThreadOk, Who's in? Any first time triathletes here? Henlopen was my first race-- I did it in 2006. I'm looking forward to coming back. Lewes is still one of my favorite places to train. |

| 8 | Subject: RE: Cape Henlopen Triathlon : Official Thread I'm signed up for it. It'll be my first ocean swim so I hope they don't end up having to cancel it (as I heard was the case for a previous year). This will be my third race and second sprint. |

Hey, that's cool. 2006 CHTD was my first duathlon...it was supposed to be my first tri, but the water wasn't cooperating. |

New user 7 | Subject: RE: Cape Henlopen Triathlon : Official Thread im in. first race back into triathlon since 2004. using it as a guide to see what i need to focus on this winter. same here with the fact that i HOPE they don't cancel the swim. i surf and guard so this is my strength coming off some looooong rest! i live in near by bethany beach but never did this tri. not sure why except for the fact that I can only afford 1 tri per season; spring/summer/fall and I used to love the sea colony tri! to far in advance to predict the swell for that day but I will say that the surf has been below average and that dewey tri and sea colony tri both got their swims off AOK. fingers crossed and see u there!

New user 2 Swarthmore, PA | Subject: RE: Cape Henlopen Triathlon : Official Thread Has anyone here done this one before? Looking at the course map - the transition area appears to be about 1/2 mile from the swim exit. That's a long way to run w/out shoes. Is it really that far? |

| 8 | Subject: RE: Cape Henlopen Triathlon : Official Thread Congrats to everyone who raced. That swim seemed like it was against the current, but I still felt comfortable so I guess that was good. Apparently there was a pod of dolphins swimming along the first wave going out..I could have sworn I saw something next to me, but that was the last thing I wanted to think about lol. I was pretty happy about placing for my AG for a nice way to end the season. Hope you all had a great race and a fun time as well. |
