Columbus International TRIATHLON

Outside of being the 4th race in the Clot Buster’s series of triathlons this season this race on Sunday marks the debut of Mrs. Clot Buster in the world of triathlon. For a number of years she was the queen of duathlon just winning in very race that she entered. This time around she will be jumping in the water with the rest of us and give it a try. She is been swimming more than NEMO in the first 5 minutes of the movie. I am really proud of her taking the challenge on the Sprint Triathlon.

I wish that I could be on the sidelines to cheer for her as she is coming out the water, going by on the bike, and kicking it home on the run. Unfortunately for her debut I will be racing as well but I am lucky since this time she will also be sporting the Clot Buster’s kit and I will be able to see her in passing to cheer for her. I look forward to hear how it goes for her out there. I am sure she will leave a lot of people on her wake…

This is without a question one of my favorite races of the year. We can ride our bikes from home to the transition area. The course is very unique as you get to ride on Ohio Highway 315 and really put the hammer down on the nice flat straight road. The run is pleasant very pleasant along the Olentangy River multi purpose trail. Flat and fast great to post your best times of the season.
Keep your fingers crossed for the TEAM CLOT BUSTER in action on Sunday.

Stay tuned for an update after the race. Let’s hope that 1300 flyers we were able to make strike a note with some of the racers and motivates them to learn about NATT, get involved with the organization, spread the word about blood clots and blood clotting disorders, and hopefully donate some green-backs for the cause.

Thanks for reading,
