I'm Going the Distance (Well, Half of it Actually)

I've been talking about, and training for a 70.3 mile triathlon since my knee surgery back in March. I've had several potential races in mind but the one that works best for my schedule, travel, etc. is the Waterman's Half in Marbury, MD on Saturday October 13th.  

I'm far enough along in my training and happy enough with my progress that today I finally, actually, handed over my money and signed up!  So that's it, no excuses, I'm committed and I CAN'T WAIT!

In case you're interested, here is the actual race marketing description...

What's really great is that my search for course info on this race lead me to a couple of tri blogs that I really like...  Here are the race reports and course description from those blogs.

Hopefully my race, and race report will be as interesting and inspiring as these great posts. 

The other site that I have come to love and rely on is beginner triathlete. Here is the race description from that site and also some of their member reviews from the 2011 race.
