(7-26-09) From Press Release - Aloha from Lavaman Keauhou! Because you can never have enough of a good thing, we've added to the Lavaman family!
With less than two months to go, plans are finalizing for our inaugural Lavaman Keauhou Triathlon on Sunday, September 13, 2009.
Lavaman Keauhou will start with a single lap 1.5K swim in the sparkling blue waters of Keauhou Bay. Upon transitioning to the bikes on the south side of the bay, athletes will enjoy a scenic single loop 40K bike course taking them up the challenging Kamehameha III Road to Kuakini Highway and the famed Queen Ka'ahumanu Highway, proceeding north to the turnaround at the entrance to the Natural Energy Lab (OTEC). Once back in town, riders will race along the famed Ali'i Drive, finishing at the Outrigger Keauhou Beach resort where they will transition to the run. The 10K run will traverse through the historic grounds of the Keauhou Resort, past ancient battlefields with sweeping ocean views and within the beautiful Kona Country Club golf course, leading to the finish at the Outrigger Keauhou Beach Resort and the beach party for which Lavaman has become known!
Special rates are available for Lavaman Keauhou athletes at our beautiful host hotel, the Outrigger Keauhou Beach Resort. You must ask for the Lavaman Triathlon Rate - $109.00 plus tax for two which includes two Buffet Breakfasts each morning of stay.
