WE HAD A GREAT FAMILY REUNION AT LAKE GENEVA IN EARLY JULY. BROTHER IN LAW JOE IS ENJOYING THE VIEW AND LUSTING AFTER SOME COOL SAILBOATS. THE TEMPS WERE OVER 100′ SO WHY NOT TAKE A FEW HOURS OUT OF THE WEEKEND AND DO A LITTLE TRIATHLON IN PARDEEVILLE WISCONSIN ?
THE WATER TEMP WAS 88′ AND THE AIR WAS A VERY FINE 81′. THE SWIM WAS LIKE SWIMMING IN A CUP OF COFFEE. IT FELT GREAT TO GET OUT AND COOL OFF ON THE BIKE. THIS WAS A SHORTER TRI SO THE SWIM AND BIKE WENT BY REALLY FAST. THE RUN WAS 3.1 MILES AND THAT SEEMED LIKE A LONG SEGMENT AS TRYING TO GO FAST SEEMS TO MAKE TIME SLOOOOOW DOWN.
THE FINISH LINE WAS VERY ORGANIZED AND THERE WAS AN INSTANT PRINT OUT OF ALL THREE EVENTS AND TRANSITIONS AND A NICE LITTLE MEAL BY THE LIONS CLUB. LOVE THAT HOME TOWN HOSPITALITY.
CHATTED UP A NICE FELLOW AND EXCHANGED SOME IRONMAN TIPS AND IT WAS BACK TO LAKE GENEVA TO VISIT WITH MORE MOLONEYS. A GOOD NUMBER OF THE FEMALE RACERS WERE PART OF A VERY FESTIVE BACHELORETTE PARTY. THEY WERE JERSEYED UP AND HAD A BIG TENT TO KEEP THE RACE FESTIVE AND FUN.
THE RACE SHIRT IS A KEEPER. WHO CAN PASS UP A FASHION STATEMENT LIKE PARDEEVILLE ACROSS YOUR FRONT ?? IT IS A GREAT LITTLE TOWN AND THEY PUT ON A GOOD EVENT. THIS WAS MY SECOND EVENT THIS YEAR PUT ON BY RACE DAY EVENTS. THEY ARE REALLY ORGANIZED, NOT CRABBY ABOUT THE DETAILS/RACER LOGISTICS AND PUT ON A GREAT VENUE/ EVENT THAT IS VERY AFFORDABLE. PUT THEM ON YOUR RADAR FOR THE FUTURE.
PIN A NUMBER ON OR THINK HARD ABOUT IT AND GET OUTSIDE AND PLAY.
HAPPY TRAILS
