Diva Run

[Grog]

I'm doing the Divas on the Run 8k on March 18th. It's a great little race. I'll gladly see you here! (I wish I could host you but I live in a student residence with no space...)

I'm not aware of a triathlon on that same day though. Do you have more info on that??

There is a tri on a diffrent day. I have the website at work I will post it later. I have looked up a few nice hotels there. DH and I, Plan to stay for the weekend, since it is my B-day weekend.

Well there is the UBC Triathlon the week before. It's a huge indoor (for the swimming part) event. http://www.rec.ubc.ca/ and then you click on the Triathlon logo on the right of the screen.

I would be wary of an open water swim in March in Vancouver. Brrr!!!

The Divas' tri is July 29th. http://www.reflexionclinics.com/races/DivaTri2007.html
I hadn't thought of doing that one, but I might. Looks fun.

There is a 90% chance I will run. I doubt I will tri. My swim time is not that good. I may practice this summer, but not sure.

Hey, Grog r u running? I am planning my trip now. Can't find a vacant (low cost) hotel though, have any names near the race event location I can check?

Humm that's not an easy one. Vancouver is a very busy city, tourism-wise.

Try the Holiday Inn on Broadway at Willow (or Heather, can't remember).

There are no hotels within the immediate vicinity of the race start but any downtown hotel near Granville street will be not bad because you can take the #4 trolley bus to get to the race start. There is also the YWCA. Check out the Best Western Chateau Granville too.

Good luck!
