Who's participating in the GA Vet Triathlon on August 16?

I'm in! This is my third tri! Take it easy on me, fellows AG 30-34.

I'll be on the Trek MTB, at the end of the pack...

Steph and I will be there.  This was my first triathlon and I can't wait to see if I've improved.  It's a flat course and is well run.  I love any race that has beef jerky in the goody bag!

Looks like I am in for this one.  JCorn talked me into this.  Sheesh, I guess I need to get on the bike again!  Oh, and I probably need to get back in the pool again too.

I might drive up to check the race out, but not participate.  Mainly because I just got interested in Tri's and suck at all three portions! Laughing

Actually, I just started reading Terry Laughlin's book entitled "Triathlon Swimming Made Easy."  I figure I better start there since one lap in the pool had me gasping for air yesterday!

Anyway, I hope to see you guys race and learn something while i'm there.

Well, would like to say HI to anyone out there from BT. What's a good way to recognize you BT'ers? If it helps any, I'm willing to mark my LEFT leg with a 'BT' on the knee, unless you guys (or girls) have a better idea....

Sure thing.  I'll see you guys there.  As far as the "BT" indentifier, i'll be sure to look for it and snap a picture if I see one you in "action"!

I'll be doing this tri as well. I wasn't planning on it. But I just met up with a couple of buddies I was with down range, and they are in so I guess I'll be doing it as well. (Not that I don't mind, I just have the Peachtree City race the following week) But hey, its only a sprint distance. Can't wait to see you guys. I'll mark up a BT on the left knee as well. wearing a 2XU blue 2 piece. in the 200 clydes div.* (That means I'm kinda fat)

None of the reports mention it, but i'm guessing that the start is not in waves...

Mass start? Yikes! Here goes the washing machine!

It's a wave start - I've never seen any local tris that do a complete mass start, to be honest. This is a very low-key race - no reason to be nervous, just lots of fun!

My first tri was an XTerra Offroad and it was a mass start...

My second tri was in waves...i like those better!

Thanks for the info and see you there!

BTW, as far as packet pickup, I'm going to get there early and pick up packet that morning. I haven't received any info regarding packet pickup.

Good luck!
