The time has come…..

The jump...eww!!
for us to choose which triathlon we’ll be participating in this year. I checked out a few of them on http://trifind.com and it’s almost overwhelming really. I picked a few, and ask that you check the site out and suggest others. Do we want to do one in early May? The downside; (1) the water is going to be cold; (2) the water is going to be cold. The upside; (1) we continue to train now for an event that’s around the corner; (2) potentially do another one in the warmer months (yes, I’m ambitious). Let’s get an exchange of ideas and we could hammer out the details in the near future.

My suggestion is the June 21, 2009: Berlin, Maryland: Assateague Assault Sprint Triathlon and if a second event the Sunday, August 16, 2009 :: North East, Maryland: North East Triathlon.
I agree, that Assateague would give us enough time to prepare. I’m searching for triathlons that include rowing too. Just some more options to make it more difficult to choose from.
