I had a few friends travel to do this race with Team In Training this year. For most it was their first tri. They LOVED the race and had a great time. What a wonderful way to make your triathlon debut- in our nation's capitol.

I signed up yesterday during pre-registration. So, I am in. Now I just have to figure out how to stay in Washington DC without paying for Hilton.
Does anyone wants to offer me one night couch/accomodation for exchange of the same thing on Manhattan?
I am serious.

Be glad to offer you my spare room, if you're willing to deal with my three dogs. I'm just over the DC line in Maryland, about 30 minutes from DC.

Well I've registered.
September 12th will be exactly 1 year after breaking my ankle during a trail half-marathon.
So I guess January 1 is start of some sort of training season for me.
Martina - you can crash @ our house too. We are in VA about 8 miles from race start area.

congrats to both of you for taking the plunge! It really is a very well run event and you can't beat the locale!
I'm still debating signing up as a relay again.
Martina, I'm further out than the others, but you are welcome to crash here as well. If I sign up as relay, well then no problems at all as you can ride along with my team and I. Though we did leave at the butt-crack of dawn. I'll post the link to the picture I already put up, where you can see how dark it still was when we got there.

I am registered for this one too. I've done 3 sprints and will do a couple more sprints before this race next year but this will be my first Olympic Distance Race.
