Big Kahuna 70.3 - Santa Cruz, CA - Anyone Else Doing It This Year

Kind of a shot in the dark, but thought there just might be others who may be heading to this event?

Lemme know.

  • I've heard this is a great race and have always wanted to fit it into my calendar someday.

  • Not this year. It was my first half-iron in 2005, and did it again in 2006 pre-IMFL.

    Cold water, long run to T1 (I presume they're still doing the same course), hilly but beautiful bike along PCH, and cool pretty-flat run out into the field to touch the Kahuna idol. Good times!

    Enjoy it John!
  • This will be my 3rd trip there.  That last mile or so of the run ON THE SAND to the finish line can be a bugger, but part of the charm.  And ya gotta love the ice creams on The Beach Boardwalk after. 

    Looks like I will be representing the team solo for this one.

    Hope all is well.

  • John,

    Sorry, I've been taking some time away from EN since CDA... I'm trying to convince the wife to let me go do this one. I'm starting to ramp up my training so that I will be ready for it. CDA took longer to recover (physically and mentally) that I expected. I'll discuss it with her this weekend and post back...

    @Peter = Would love to see another EN jersey out there.  My wife is doing Pacific Grove Oly that Saturday in Monterey and I will be doing the 70.3 on Sunday.  Family tri weekend.  We should be in Santa Cruz mid-afternoon sometime on Sunday.  If ya wanna meet up before, let me know.
