Tri/Dive in Honduras?

[divingbiker]

I followed a couple of links on the 2007 Irongirl Columbia web site and found that there's a triathlon in Roatan in the Bay Islands of Honduras in March. http://bayislandstriathlon.com/home.htm I could do a scuba diving trip AND a triathlon, all in one vacation!

Pros:
It would make me keep exercising through the winter.
I could do two tris next year--Roatan and Irongirl Columbia.
I'm going to take a dive trip in March anyway, so why not in Roatan?

Cons:
It's hot in Honduras.
It's buggy in Honduras.
I'd have to take a LOT of luggage with both dive gear and the bicycle.
I'm usually a slug on dive trips (will walk 45 minutes in the morning, then dive, then read, eat, and go to bed at 9 pm.) A triathlon would be work.

I've only been back from my latest dive trip for 12 hours and already I'm working on the next one...

Wow, that would be cool. But... doesn't sound like much of a vacation

Diving Biker,

Just think of it this way, would it better your health and make you happy? AND, will you regret NOT doing it after it's over?

You should go for it! Just use your taper time as your diving time!
