This race consisted of a 350 meter pool swim and a 5 km run. The swim was in a \u201clong course\u201d 50 meter lap format, and the huge GMU pool was set up to have only 7 wide lanes, so there was plenty of room for competitors, as they started swimming at 5 second intervals. The run was a 2-loop course from the fitness complex to the Hylton Performing Arts Center and back. Lawyer Landau\u2019s goals were: swim his predicted time of 7 minutes, finish in the top 3, complete the course in under 30 minutes despite injured legs. With perfect weather and his new TeamUSA Worlds racing kit, Landau swam 7:09, was down by 1:20 after the swim &amp; came back 1:05 for the runner up spot, and finished in under 28 minutes ! Doug noted that he had \u201crun out of real estate\u201d &#8211; had the race been another kilometer, he felt as though he could have won.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-7935\" src=\"https:\/\/landauinjurylaw.com\/theathleteslawyer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/08\/IMG_1618-233x300.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_1618\" width=\"233\" height=\"300\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Ina Nenninger\u00a0(in photo on right, about to get a peck on the cheek from &#8220;over 40&#8221; age group winner Doug Landau) one of the founders of Tri It Now, also staged a \u201cKids Tri Too,\u201d for those are 6-14 prior to the adult race. After the adult race, there was a \u201cKids Can Du\u201d run-bike-run event for children ages 5-9. Some of the children in the first race did the entire event in their swim caps, as once the bike helmet is clicked on your head, you are not allowed to take it off until you are done. If you \u201cunblock\u2019 before returning your bike to the rack in T-2, you will be disqualified.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_7937\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7937\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-7937\" src=\"https:\/\/landauinjurylaw.com\/theathleteslawyer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/08\/IMG_1611-300x209.jpg\" alt=\"One of the youngsters that raced with his swim cap on heads to the finish line !\" width=\"300\" height=\"209\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7937\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">One of the youngsters that raced with his swim cap on heads to the finish line !<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>In addition to friendly volunteers, knowledgeable staff and events for everyone, the Tri It Now venue enables participants to change, shower afterwards, or sit in the hot tub or swim some more at the Freedom Center pool and indoor water park.
