Carlsbad Braces for Triathlon

by The Editors on July 6, 2007

We’ve already mentioned that Tamarack Beach (all the way north to Pine Street) will be closed Sunday July 8 due to the Carlsbad Triathlon, but now the North County Times presents a more level, fact-filled version of the story. It even features quotes from people involved.

Amateur competitors from as far away as Hawaii, New York and Mexico City are registered to participate in the event, which includes a 1-kilometer ocean swim, a 25k bike race and a 5k footrace along the Carlsbad coastline, said Carlsbad recreation supervisor Rachel Shay. “Carlsbad is a city geared to (a triathlon) with the ocean and the scenic seawall,” Shay said, “And with the sprint nature of this race, anyone can compete and succeed.”

Now that’s what we call reporting. Click the link for all the details.
