YDUBTRICLUB INVITATIONAL TRIATHLON

You are invited to the 2011 YDUBTRICLUB INVITATIONAL TRI this Sunday at 9:00am. This is a VERY informal swim-bike-run workout that is a warm-up to the Azalea tri on March 12-13. The course will include a 300-yard swim, a 9-mile bike and a 3.1-mile run. This event is a self-paced and self-timed event. The swim starts at 9:00a. Please arrive by 8:30 to allow for bike set-up.

Please CLICK HERE to RSVP and receive complete details.

The event will take place at the YWCA on Sunday morning. The plan is to start the swim around 9:00a.m. The current plan is to do a quick warm-up in the pool and then run through a 300-yard snake swim twice. 

The second set will mark the start of the brick workout. The nine mile bike  is a loop that includes part of the Wrightsville Beach sprint tri course. The 5K RUN is an out-and-back in and around Holly Tree Road. 

IF you [or a significant other] don't want to participate but are available to volunteer, please CLICK HERE.
