I'm excited to share event videos from two of the Try the Tri Series races that I am the Assistant Race Director for in Decatur, Texas. 

The Try the Tri Series races are geared towards beginner triathletes looking to get started in the sport. Our sprint-distance races are limited to 100 participants per race, so that athletes don’t feel lost in the crowd and are staffed with race volunteers to help you figure out where to go and what to do.

We welcome athletes of every body type, age, and fitness level, so no matter where you are at in your fitness level – everyone fits in!

Whether your goals are to just finish the race, set a new personal record or win your age group – we’re here to cheer you on and support you!

RACE REPORT:  Here's a Race Report on the Texas Girl Tri from fellow blogger, ThatPinkGirl.
