Hello racers!

We're looking forward to the 3rd year of Richmond's only 1/2 iron tri. Big things are happening in the Rockett's Landing area. The construction contract for the Virginia Capital Trail between Shiplock park and Rockett's has been awarded, and this path will go right by the race venue at the Sugar Pad. This area's revitalization has been in the works for a long time, and we are happy to promote the cleanup effort. In fact, there will be cleanup day coordinated by Replenish Richmond on Sept 6th. Come out and join us!

We have other changes in the works, with some potential alterations for a safer bike course, so stay tuned.

Never done a half iron before? Don't want to travel? This race was my first half iron, long before I started working with RMS.

Feel free to ask me any questions you might have.

The half runs alongside the Olympic distance, and has a cap of 400 COMBINED for both races. With the Oly's selection as part of this year's Mid-Atlantic Collegiate Triathlon Conference series, expect the event to sell out early! Sign up now with your discount code of BT10 for 10% off! What?! That's over $20 off!

My issue is that I am currently deployed and training outside is proving difficult, especially on the bike. I have found a safe 10km running loop but I am struggling with the bike training.

I just had a couple of problems, I could count the number of triathlons I had contested at zero. Secondly, I could count on one hand the number of times I had been swimming in the last 17 years.
