Race for a Reason is a supported preview of the course and the proceeds are going to towards the youth triathlon club in Augusta.  [That’s right! All the kiddos you’ve been seeing in the SBK blog!]

This is a great opportunity to come out and ride the course as a preview if you’re training for the Augusta 70.3.

Plus, who knows who you will see!?? The kids from the SBK blog, Todd, Meredith, Sweet Red?  (Ok, well probably everybody except Sweet Red. We can’t get the Preggo One on a bike…)

Many SBM army members already going so you definitely won’t be alone!

  1. My body may feel like toast, (Doing the Chattahoochee Olympic Challenge in Columbus, the day before) & I MAY be crazy… But after reading about this event, I’m gonna sign up! 😮 😀

  2. Gonna go 4 the 62.5 ride… You had me at, “Sag Wagon & After~Party!” … just kidding. 😉

  3. Am I blind or does it not say anywhere, even in the registration link, what day this actually takes place! I would love to participate but can’t figure out when it is for the life of me! HAHA.

  4. Good catch! It’s August 10th. The date is on the “overview” tab but not the “details” tab. I’ll make sure they fix it! Thanks for catching that!

  5. Hey guys! I just looked this up to join in the fun tomorrow. Is there any way to sign up and register as a latecomer? I saw the cut off date was wednesday. 🙁
