It's three months and counting till the first annual Kirkland Long Course Triathlon.
On July 11, 2010, one or more crazy souls will swim from Juanita Beach to Waverly Beach and back, then ride to Monroe via Redmond, Fall City, and Carnation, then return the same way, and finally run to the Sammamish River trail then to Kenmore, and back the same way .
The event is free, there is no on-course support provided, it's draft-legal, and no times will be taken. It's all just for fun.
People can come and do one, two, or all three events. They can do part of the swim, then all of the bike, or visa-versa, or any combination they wish.
My hope is people will start the swim so they will be done just before 8am, so everyone can start together on the bike and do most of the 112 miles in a peloton going around 19 mph. The course travels through Carnation at 35 and 75 miles where the group will stop to refill bottles.
So mark your calendars and don't miss a one-of-a-kind event, if you think you're up to it!
