Elite  3687     |  Subject: Lake Minnetonka TriI have been hearing a lot of people talking about Lake Minnetonka being a great race you need to sign up early for. Just thought I would let everyone know registration for next year is OPEN. |

| Member 160 | Subject: RE: Lake Minnetonka Tri I wasn't sure if doing a triathlon (individual instead of team) with my wife was a good idea, but it was a blast. Getting a high five from her as we passed on the out and back run was a real pick me up at a time I needed it. |

Believe me, I was thinking about that as I signed up... And I did sign up Athena and hope to be as thin as possible to be in the category to set a course record - ha ha. You know, they never mention stuff like that for Athenas. I wouldn't mind another present and trophy Glad you're in, Jer! |

| New user 18 Minnetonka | Subject: RE: Lake Minnetonka Tri With all positive reviews, how can I not do this race? I just registered as well. Although at nearly $80, it's not cheap! |

| New user 29 Chanhassen | Subject: RE: Lake Minnetonka Tri I'm signed up! This will only be my 2nd tri... but I needed something potentially "easier" than the Waconia Tri I did last year. Bonus points for it being 3 miles from my house!  |

This will only be my 2nd tri... but I needed something potentially "easier" than the Waconia Tri I did last year. Bonus points for it being 3 miles from my house! It's definitely easier than that race! That might have something to do with why it's so popular |

| Elite 3277 Minnetonka | Subject: RE: Lake Minnetonka Tri Welcome aboard everyone! I did this race for the first time last year, and it really is an easy flowing course. I'm a big BIG Clyde. The swim is not too bad, the bike has a couple hills but not too bad, and the run is as abut as flat as a run can get. This has been my favorite race so far..! |

| Member 21 St. Paul | Subject: RE: Lake Minnetonka Tri Disliking the run portion the most I am in, based on the positive, flat description. Hope they don't change the course! (Jer if they change it I'll have to find you.... ) |

| Expert 638 | Subject: RE: Lake Minnetonka Tri The run is flat and fast. There are a few hills in the middle of the bike but pretty tame. The swim can be choppy depending on the day -- this is a big lake after all. Overall it is a very nice race and capped at a reasonable number so as to not be insanely crowded. |

| Elite 3277 Minnetonka | Subject: RE: Lake Minnetonka Tri My goal is to get at least a mile into the run before EJShowers passes me... (FYI I had like a 30 minute head start last year)...! Also... Foggy alerted me that I was running out of T2 with my helmet on.. I wish I could have been a spectator watching myself race. It was a hoot! |

| Member 91 Minneapolis | Subject: RE: Lake Minnetonka Tri I'm in! I was waiting to see if a friend was going to join me but he just declined. I got $75 for Christmas from my in-laws, so I registered Putting paying for it up front will keep me motivated throughout the winter too, haha. |
