The 2010 Sweet & Twisted Tri – Central Texas’ premier women’s-only triathlon - will be held at the beautiful Pace Bend Park, conveniently located just minutes outside of Austin, in Spicewood, TX. Thanks to the considerable rain the Hill Country has received over the past month – lake levels are at a 3 year high and near full capacity. The 500 meter SWIM is held in Mudd Cove , with plenty of open water certified lifeguards on-hand for oversight & safety from the wonderful team at The Expedition School. Big thanks to Jack & Adams for being ou r2010 Swim Course Sponsor. The 12.8 mile BIKE is entirely on paved roads. Athletes will cycle 2 loops on a series of scenic, rolling hills. Where there are hills – there are great downhills too! The short 5K RUN is contained completely within the Park – on a combination of paved roads and improved trail roads. The portion of ‘improved trail’ roads…think Lady Bird Lake Trail! Athletes finish into the large, shaded venue area, where everyone will receive free massage from Advanced Rehab, soft serve ice cream from Kool Kones, luscious cupcakes, sandwiches, fresh fruit and Sweet & Twisted Tris signature mimosa! Each athlete will also receive an ice cold finishers towels courtesy of Hill Country Running Company and water bottle from Pure Austin Fitness at the finish line. ALL participants will receive special finishers medals. Special awards for overall & age group winners courtesy of our wonderful friends at REI. Prepare for a full weekend of sweet & twisted fun, beginning with our EXPO EXTRAGANZA and packet pickup on August 21 at REI Round Rock! Seven different clinics, info sessions, demonstrations, Q&A's and great shopping. Apparel and nutrition vendors will offer a lot of product samplings and giveaways. Austin area training groups will also be on-hand to share information about their year-round fitness programs. Shop for all your triathlon needs and get some last minute Sweet & Twisted tips. Mark your calendar for the Expo Extravaganza and Packet Pickup - August 21st!
