KEMAH TRIATHLON 2012 WRAP UP

What an absolutely wonderful weekend.
Thank you all for coming out!
We had a wonderful turn out, great athletes, outstanding support and cheering crowds.

A lot of hard work by a lot of great people and a giant thank you to everyone involved!

How about that boat ride!
The bike and the wind on the way out! At least you had a speedy ride back!
The Run, never ever underestimate the bridge!

All in all Kemah was a great success this year and as usual we like to hear from you the good the bad and the maybes.
We are always looking at ways to improve after all we don't just put on races we are athletes too.

I hope everyone, your friends and families had a great time and enjoyed all Kemah has to offer.


Were looking forward to the Next TX3 event Bridgeland August 5.

KEMAH WATER TEMPS!

Current water temp is 67-68 degrees. The weekend winds and storms in the gulf brought in some colder water. Within 100 meters of shore it warms way up but it's a bit chilly past the docks. If you have a wetsuit bring it! If you don't you should still be ok... it's warmer than it will be at Alcatraz!
