Therefore, he determined to go out fast on the opening 1 Km beach run, and really Hammer the 30 Km bike leg.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Even though the Herndon lawyer trains barefoot, he wore shoes. Wearing his TeamUSA kit, he was the fifth racer into the first transition area off the beach and boardwalk. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">A lightning fast transition put him in about fourth place, heading into the bike, where no one passed the speedy Virginia triathlete.

However, after finishing what he thought was a good effort, he saw the results. He was runner up again in 2016, as his run time for simply not were it needed to be. Landau knew going in that seven minute miles, or faster, were necessary to win a race like Bethany Beach. He knew that 7:45\/Mile should not yield the top podium spot. <\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_7655\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7655\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/landauinjurylaw.com\/theathleteslawyer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2016\/09\/BBeach-1st-responders.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-7655\" src=\"https:\/\/landauinjurylaw.com\/theathleteslawyer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2016\/09\/BBeach-1st-responders-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"The beneficiary of the Bethany Beach races is the Police, Fire &amp; Rescue First Responders of this vibrant Delaware town\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/landauinjurylaw.com\/theathleteslawyer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2016\/09\/BBeach-1st-responders-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/landauinjurylaw.com\/theathleteslawyer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2016\/09\/BBeach-1st-responders.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7655\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The beneficiary of the Bethany Beach races is the Police, Fire &amp; Rescue First Responders of this vibrant Delaware town<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"p1\">Still, for an 56 year old athlete, runner up is not too shabby.

Friendly volunteers, a fun pre-race party and great food after the races on the board walk make for a terrific time for racers young and old. There&#8217;s even a novice wave for first time triathletes, so that they do not have to worry about getting jostled or run over by seasoned competitors, and customized prizes for the age group winners.
