Here are a few photos of the swim and run course that I took on Friday before the race. I did not get any shots of the bike course, but I have some lovely video to show in next post. I basically propped my video camera up on the dashboard of my car and filmed the whole bike course. I was good to have it to watch and review Friday night before the race.
This is a picture of the 1/3 mile swim course. Luckily, it was not this choppy Saturday morning. Even out the the second buoy in the picture, it was knee deep water, and we would swim a little and get up and run a little. It was not ideal.
This is a picture of the area around the final mile of the course. The first mile was all up hill, the second mile was all downhill, and the last mile of the run was flat. This part of the course followed along the shoreline below the bluffs.
We ran down the road along the shoreline to the turn around area beyond this duck pond, and it was aptly named. There were ducks and geese everywhere. There droppings were also everywhere. There were a couple on Saturday morning that did not like me doing a warm-up run around their habitat who started to charge at me a little.
This was the final stretch to the finish line. Past this straight away we ran along the outer perimeter of the transition area to the finish line stocked with pizza and beer.
