2013 ROUND 2 LOTTERY WINNERS

Woohooo . . . I've been selected again! 2013 is going to be my 6 year competing in the AMAZING Escape from Alcatraz Triathlon.  I love this race and am truly blessed to have been able to compete in it for the past 5 years, and now my 6th year.  It's one of my most painful races . . . EVER, but that swim is like no other and truly the highlight of my entire race.  That type of swim used to be one of my biggest fears in life, now that swim is one of my most amazing joys . . . kind of funny how that works!

Congrats to everyone else selected in this race for 2013. It's going to be a blast! Happy Training!

Cheers!

Perry

p.s.  I recorded my swim in 2011, check it out!

Race Day is 19 Days Away!! Woohoooo!!

Huge apologies in not keeping this blog up-to-date as I have in previous years, but had to drop a quick note.  Trust training is going well for everyone doing this amazing Escape from Alcatraz Triathlon in 19 days.  Training had gone really well for me. This year I did something a bit different and picked a triathlon in April to do as well to help w/ the lead-up for Alcatraz.  So in April, through Team in Training, I competed in the Lavaman in Kona, Hawaii.  It was an absolute blast and the perfect 'lead-up' for Alcatraz.  This race will also most likely be come a yearly ritual.

I'm hoping to write a bit more this weekend.  If you're visiting this blog for the first time, scan through the blog as it contains my adventures for this race over the past four years.  It's truly an incredible race and the swim is incredible.  That swim used to be one of my biggest fears in life and now it's one of my most incredible joys! Funny how that works!

Happy training and tapering to everyone, and feel free to drop any comments on your training adventures for this race.

Cheers! Perry
