VINEMAN Full 2015- July 25th

 Looking for someone to race this with :-). Big discount if you sign up with a buddy.

Vineman Full ( Ironman distance race) is Saturday July 25th, 2015. I have not done an Ironman event since Ironman Mont Tremblant in 2012. My husband and I saved for the last few years for a home remodel which will start in February!!! Very exciting. I had planned to get back to racing in 2016 but I have the itch. Vineman is a great local event for me that is inexpensive and best of all has a no stress swim. You swim in a river and can actually stand up  if you get tired or overwhelmed. The bike and run course are BEAUTIFUL through wine country in northern California!!!   It has a great deal where if you sign up with a friend you each get a discount. The rates go up after 12/31/14.

Right now the cost is $375 but if you sign up with a friend the cost is $281 each. What a deal.

Let me know if you want to join me and we can sign up together.

  • Good luck Carrie (on the remodel and the Vineman). It is a great race. I've done it 4 times now and finally cracked the 1st place finish in my AG last year.
  • Thanks Mark. Wow an AG win!! That is huge. Congrats.

    I really hope I can find someone who wants to race it too so we can get the buddy deal. I'll reach out to my local club too.
  • Good luck Carrie! I'll be doing Barb's Race that same day so I may see you out there on the course somewhere. image

    And good luck with the remodel - that's exciting!
  • @ Carrie, I hope you survived the flooding and rain storms. I was watching the flooding at Guerneville from afar. I've been hoping that the Russian River would flood for a while and scour out the gravel a little. The first time we did the Vineman was in 2006 and they had a similar flood and the swim course was deeper which was nice since the last couple of years I've been hitting the bottom at times with my hands.

    Take care, Mark
