Kure Beach Double Sprint
Kure Beach was the very first "Formula 1" or super sprint style triathlon in the U.S.
Competitors start out with a 375 meter ocean swim (water temp - 80-82 degrees). Upon exiting the water, participants put on their running gear at the "Beach Transition Area" and run 1.5 miles to the "Town Hall Transition Area". Participants then complete a 10K bike ride on a closed course (no traffic). With no rest - participants immediately ride the 10 K bike course again finishing at the "Town Hall Transition Area". Then it's back on with the running gear for the 1.5 mile run back to the "Beach Transition Area". Participants complete the race by once again swimming the 375 meter course.
Today SBR Coach Amelia and some of her clients and friends are competing. It is a very hot day out mid 90's with a heat index close to 100F!...details to follow!
