Who's racing what this weekend?

I'm doing an olympic tri tomorrow, last race of my summer swim/tri season.

trigal, have you done it before? I have done Big George, but not the Oly, and they don't overlap at all. Any comments or advice on the bike loop? I have looked at it on mapmyrun but haven't seen it in person.

Go get it Susie!!

I'm racing my last triathlon of the season tomorrow, too. It's an inaugural race here in NM - 50.5 miles (our area code is 505). 1 mile swim, 40 mile bike, 9.5 mile run. Should be fun!

Yes - it is not looking like it will be my best race of the year! The course is a ball buster, too. So hilly, bad roads, crazy hot, totally exposed.

I sound excited, don't I

I'm just hoping to be able to run at least half of it, and that the weather holds out.

It's been at least four years since I've done it, so I may be wrong!

I am racing today. Last minute decision... texted my friend "Hey! There is a 5k!" Her reply was "What time should I be at your house?"

We are heading out early; another friend said we will be there too early. Eh... whatever. At least we will be first for the porta potties!
