Subject: RE: Amica 19.7 Tellico Sprint Triathlon : Official Thread Hi Chris, Kevin (RD) checks pretty regularly so he can probably shed the best insight but... 1.) There's plenty for the kids, besides the outdoorsy stuff (fishing, hiking, etc) there is premium shopping, lots of good theatres, downtown life (maybe not so much for the kids) and music, and some pretty decent places to eat. 2.) TN hills aren't too bad if you are from the area, but pretty rough for flat landers. The Amica course doesn't have any sustained long climbs, but a couple of short steep bits and some false flats that will drain on you. 3.) Last year it was JUST wetsuit legal... this year we've been having unusually warm temps so I would certainly plan on it NOT being wetsuit legal. That said, it's a straight, fast swim so you should enjoy it. I'd recommend the race, just make sure you know exactly which way to go on the run course... that's been an issue a couple of times (though usually only for the first few runners) Hope to see you there! |
