Y Not Tri Triathlon


This Thursday evening I'll be competing in the YMCA sponsored Y Not Tri Mini Sprint Triathlon. With short distances and a safe course, the Y-Not Tri is a great triathlon for the beginner athlete! This is a 1/4 mile swim, 6 mile bike and a 2 mile run.
Beginner Men Division starts at 7:45pm

Justin and I are both doing this, so come out and see it if you get a chance.

The swim begins at Parkcenter Pond directly across from Albertsons headquarters on Parkcenter Blvd. The bike course will proceed down Parkcenter Blvd. All major intersections will be monitored by volunteer road marshals and motor escort service. The bike will finish in the Albertsons headquarters parking lot. The run follows the greenbelt and finishes back at Albertsons Headquarters.

Each of us will be wearing a "timing chip" and I'll post more later and let you know how it goes.
