September 18, 2010 – Kirkland WA

Cloudy skies and cold temperatures greeted athletes this morning as they prepared for the 8th Annual Kirkland Traithlon at Carillon Point.  This event made it’s debut in 2002, when over 1300 athletes registered, making it one of the largest ‘first-year’ sprint events in our nation’s history.

This year’s event, along with the weather, did NOT disappoint.  Cloudy september skies quickly gave way to sun.  By mid morning, novice and veteran triathletes alike enjoyed the thrill of perfect northwest racing conditions.
