The count is up to 4! I just got back from an open water swim and everyone was talking about how cold the water was at the spring today....if only they knew....

I also got the notice a couple days ago. So stoked, not so stoked about the 320 dollar entry fee though...but I understand why its so much.

Congrats!
I am going too. I have always wanted to do this race. It's kind of an adventure race and triathlon wrapped up in one. See you all there

To those of you that have done this race before. How did you train for the sand stairs? Been running on beach but not sure if you have any pointers? Thanks so much

I have been told no matter how fit you are, the sand stairs are a bitch. A guy who was a top 5 overall age grouper there told me..... walk them!
YES!!!!!!!!!!!
I just got an email saying that I won a lottery slot in this years Escape from Alcatraz Triathlon. This will be my third year and I am excited more than ever! This is an amazing race and I feel honored to be part of such an amazing race.
What this means is now that I need to start training more on hills and beaches...plus more swimming. I will keep everyone posted on how thinigs are leading up to the race.
The race is slated for Sunday June 8th in good ol' foggy San Francisco.
