Lake Tahoe 2025 Olympic Triathlon
At the beginning of 2025, I set three physical goals. Today, I achieved number 2: complete an olympic distance triathlon.
I looked at several triathlons, but few fit my schedule and training schedule for the second half of 2025, except The Lake Tahoe Tri. Sure it was at altitude. Sure, the cycling route included over 2500 ft of climbing. But you swim in Lake Tahoe! And you run in the woods of Sugar Pine Point Beach. And the views, oh the views! Emerald Bay. Cascade Lake. Lake Tahoe.
We encountered this morning a calm lake and a light cooling drizzle for the entire event. I didn’t mind it a bit. I had a blast! Now a week of recovery ha!
