This is a great website to track how far out run if you are unsure. Running, Running Maps & Running Routes, Runners Community | MapMyRUN I run, bike, and swim. Has anyone here other than Ho done a triathlon? I am doing my 2nd one this Sat.

I'm doing my first triathlon on the 19th of March.....should be interesting

Shockoe Bottom and Slip have really been revitalized with shops and restaurants. Not sure how long it has been since you were there.

They have great mountain bike/running trails along the north and south side of the river downtown. You feel like you are deep in a jungle. Xterra uses it for their regional triathlon championship.

I agree, I don't like treadmills, but running is running. I guess we have to follow the rules.

Ive known a few people who trained for their first 5k and did almost all their running on a treadmill. They would be so confident of the pace they were going to maintain in the race only to have those dreams shattered on race day.

I use treadmills but I hate them. Just feels like it's going on forever. Like being outside better. Especially if the route goes through UCF and the temperatures are warm.
