Results: Results are rolling in.  The first finisher was from Bern Switzerland.  Patrick K. finished the SimplyStu WorldWide Triathlon at 6:00am (Swiss time) at his local club.  A sprint triathlon was, as Patrick put it, "The perfect way to start my day. I just wish I could continue my day and not actually work."

The Third Annual SimplyStu WorldWide Triathlon is set in stone.  The dates will be March 28th - 30th.  This year is going to be great. 

Prizes: FREE T-Shirts for the FIRST 50 Kids with the cool new logo.

Date: March 28th - 30th

Format:  You just need to do a SWIM, BIKE and RUN between the 28th and 30th of March.  The idea is bring the kids with you, introduce a friend, or a date with your significant other.   In the past two years people from all over the world have taken part in this awesome event.  No pressure, no hassle, just a race around the world.  You will join others from Japan, UK, Switzerland, US and everywhere in between.  You can do it all at your local health club, you can do it outside, you can do it alone, you can do it with your family. 

Distance:  Any distance will do.  I have had as short as a 1 lap swim, a 2 block bike ride, and a 1 block run.  The longest???  A 1/2 Ironman.  So you can see there is a lot of room.  Just be part of the day.

I have many people that have done I and II, and plan to do III, so if you are new, I hope you join in.  You will be part of the most wide spread single weekend triathlon in the world.

Global Runners: Check out Rural-Girls blog for all the awesome details.  Michelle is starting the very cool program as part of the SimplyStu Worldwide Weekend! 

Cost? Yeah right.  NEVER! 

If you are going to join in, just send me an E-Mail with your location, distance and who is doing it.  I will give you specifics on getting kids T-Shirts in a few days.

The catch?  Have fun, be healthy, and enjoy!
