Relay Teams are growing

I thought this topic needed a new post. Based on what I am hearing we are now up to potentially six relay teams for the Duke Liver Center Triathlon in September. Below are the teams I have heard of.

• Team 1: (S) Mary, (B) Kinnie, and (R) Patti
• Team 2: (S) Mike, (B) Jeff, and (R) Dave
• Team 3: (S) Doug, (B) Eric, and (R) Michael
• Team 4: (S) Elizabeth, (B) Ursula, and (R) Jenni
• Team 5: (S) Carol, (B) Tracy H, and (R) Andy
• Team 6: (S) George, (B) Tim, and (R) Ryan

Not all of these teams are confirmed, and I believe only Team #2 above has officially entered. If everyone does sign up, we will be sending 18 people to Raleigh to participate in the event. WOW! Thanks Kinnie and Patti for recommending this event. I never expected this much interest.

One major benefit of a relay team, is that you get to be a participant, and a fan all at the same event. This really could be a blast to have so many people and family members in Raleigh all cheering each other on. Here is a map of the various portions of the course.

If you are reading this and wanting to join in, it is not too late. Post a comment here and let everyone know which leg of the race you could participate in. Many of the groups above hardly know each other (or don't know each other at all), but they still put together a team. Swimmers are in high demand, so if you know a swimmer who is willing to swim 1.2 miles, point them to our blog.

For the teams above, don't wait too long to sign up. There appears to still be ample space, but these races typically fill up early. Raleigh should be preparing for a Rocky Mount Invasion this September!
