Subject: RE: St Anthony's adds Sprint Distance Race This year was my first year of triathlons. My background is all cycling. So I'm going to ask a very newbie question. I've noticed that a large group of people that race tris have almost all raced the St. Anthony's race. Basically anyone from Florida has raced it. Racers from the down south, far west, and the east coast that only compete in one race a year, that race is this one. It was also mentioned in Active's 11 Races That Sell Out Fast. Here's the newbie question. I saw that it's a USAT regional championship. Is that the reason for the large draw? I'm only asking because a lot of the people that only race once a year, I'd expect that to be more local. But that might just be me. |
