172 Kenmore, Washington | Subject: Lake Padden Triathlon 2014 - June 28 Anyone signed up for this? This was my first ever triathlon in 2013. It was 2 hours 42 minutes of suffering. I hope to smash that time this year. The pre-race vibe in 2013 was great and the course is just awesome. The lake is clean, the bike course is scenic with lots of hills and turns, and the run is mostly flat gravel trail through the woods. It's a great showcase of what the PNW has to offer. oh, and the shirts in 2013 were amazing! It's not plastered with sponsor logos and I actually get compliments when I wear it :D http://www.cob.org/services/recreation/races/padden-triathlon.aspx |

Pro 6520 Bellingham, WA | Subject: RE: Lake Padden Triathlon 2014 - June 28 I might do the race this year. I've done it many times over the years and it is a great event. This is the first year in the last three that is not on the same day as the Seatte Rock n Roll marathon which I have chose to do. Hopefully we start get some warmer, sunnier days so the lake begins warming up. It was pretty chilly last year early in the season. |

Fortunately I was such an inefficient swimmer that I generated lots of extra body heat with my thrashing about. :-) This year I will wear the wetsuit. Another nice feature of this race is the transition area is in a parking lot, so no grassy or sandy feet to deal with. |

It's just a fun event. They keep things light and don't take themselves too seriously. I totally agree about the shirt! Not only does it look good, but it actually fits well. |
