After doing my first triathlon last year I decided that I was hooked. I love the push to the limit feeling that a tri gives you. I had talked to several people that said to try and get into the SpudMan in Burley, Idaho. This is a popular triathlon because the swim portion is down the Snake River and thus you can get good swim times.
Well at noon on Monday when registration opened, I hopped on and signed up. It is a good thing that I signed up at noon because the event sold out in 26 minutes. I am very excited to compete in this event. It is on July 26th and features a 1.5K swim a 40K bike finished up with a 10K run. The best part is that four of my good friends also got in.
Here is a picture of me in last years Yuba Man Tri.
