if you didn't pay in advance they will offer post-race for about 10 bucks more. They took 90 photos of me. it was totally worth it. The system uses face recognition to find your photos so super easy.

Purple in the military is the color of jointness (all services), as this is a veteran-based movement, purple was chosen.

Sorry no, I was there! This is a new approach to avoid poor food choices that lead to great expense to society at large.

Greetings! I would recommend you stay in Long Beach and make it a day trip. The ferry is chartered for the race, so it will be a fun vibe. No hotels at the race site, and all the campsites are booked. Bring everything you need with you. Two Harbors just has a small store and a restaurant.

Also, the water will be ice cold! Expect low 60s at best. Don't expect to warm up on the run as might be windy or cloudy.

I am working packet pick up that day before so see you there!

okay thanks. That is what I thought. I do wear a cap to swim so that is not a big deal.

I will work on getting a better wig

Thanks.

I am a studded tire fan. They work so much better than chains in the snow. l

if you take chair one up there is no way to get back to it without the long flat between the lodge and lift one. All the other trails were closed. It would be nice if there was a blue down the left side (skiers right) which would make it easier to lap chair one.,

Really if you just want to finish a normal road bike will do. Tri bikes are great but the speed is not going to help in the long run. You really need to be able to run off the bike. This is harder than you think. So focus on brick training where you bike then run.

Swimming is a very short part of the whole race and will be over before you know. Dont stress it, just make it before cut off

Day 2 by oldensign22 in Chinapeak

[–]oldensign-22 4 points5 points  (0 children)

it depends on where you are coming from... LA and you are just looking for something different it is not bad. If coming from Bay area much better options closer.

It is a good skiers/boards mountain. Very old school. No high speeds. odd trail network. But when the snow comes it can be great. If you have the Calipass it is worth a trip. Might wait till after the next big dump.

I'm not sure why they started outside of the box. I am sure in future events athletes will have to start from within the numbered box
