Advice on Alcatraz

guest — Wed, 23 May 2007 02:29:25 GMT

I need some advice on the Alcatraz Swim. I just finished 70.3 Florida. No problems. I'm quessing The Rock will be a little tougher. Need tips on sighting, and what to expect. Thanks

pointers on Alcatraz

I'm competing in my 1st Escape for Alcatraz this year. Any pointers. I've been training in GA lakes all winter. I'm sure the Bay will be tougher. Any tips?

Thanks

Can Road bike be setup to a tri bike

guest — Tue, 27 Mar 2007 04:03:52 GMT

I have a trex 1500. I done several tri's on this bike. I added areo bars. However, I feel very awkward while in aero position. I've also read that the wrong set up will hamper your run after you exit the bike. Any ideas.

Thanks

I am competing in the Escape for Alcatraz Tri. All my tri's have been in warm water. I have 2 questions...

Is the water as cold as I hear?

What is the best wetsuit to get for an event like this one

I am competing in the Alcatraz tri. All my tri's so far have been in warm water. Anyone know where to get a good deal on a wetsuit?

my wife is a yoga instructor. I thought at first, no way this would help me. I gave it a couple of tries. Man... My soreness is gone & my flexibility is thru the roof. If anyone needs anymore information, let me know. I'm doing my first 1/2 ironman in the spring. This stuff is great.

I heard that you could attend a 3 day camp and get a slot for Escape. Do you know anything about this?

Thanks

I got a slot for NYC Tri. However, I really want to get into Escape form Alcatraz. I'm in the lottery. However, I think that is a slim chance. Does anyone know another way to get a slot.

Thanks, Scot
