Doug Landau arrived several days early in order to scout out the ITU Draft-Legal Sprint Triathlon World Championship Qualifier race course, attend clinics, and visit with family &amp; friends.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>If there is a national, regional or world championship race within striking distance of the Landau Law Shop, you know Doug Landau is going to be at the starting line. When the USAT Draft Legal Sprint Triathlon was moved from Arizona to Richmond Virginia, recently, it peaked lawyer Landau&#8217;s interest. While &#8220;draft legal&#8221; racing means packs on the bike, passing on the right AND left, pelotons working together, and different kinds of bicycles then the biking barrister is used to, he thought he would give it a try. He signed up for the the <a href=\"https:\/\/livered.org\/east-coast-triathlon-festival\/\">East Coast Triathlon Festival<\/a>, with an eye towards making making TeamUSA once again.<\/p>\n<div>Having only raced &#8220;draft legal&#8221; in 3-4 multisport competitions in his life, Landau realized he would be at a severe disadvantage on the bike portion of the event, which is almost 50% of the race. If he did not get out of the water quickly and jump on a fast pack of riders, he could lose many minutes out on the course trying to pedal solo, not to mention burn lots of matches before getting to the run. Nevertheless, he had had some good results at the short distance races.\u00a0 <span style=\"font-size: 1rem\">Landau had just won his division in the USAT Mid-Atlantic Sprint Duathlon Championships in Hagerstown Maryland, and last year won his division in the USAT Sprint Triathlon Mid Atlantic Championship in Bear, Delaware. Those podiums, along with hard winter training after his crash in September, suggested he might be able to qualify. In order to compete at the ITU Draft Legal Sprint Triathlon Championships in Bermuda in October, 2021, Landau would have to finish the top 10 of his category.\u00a0 Landau now had a goal, but no bicycle he could legally ride in the race!<\/span><\/div>\n<div>.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<figure id=\"attachment_9339\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9339\" style=\"width: 588px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-9339\" src=\"https:\/\/landauinjurylaw.com\/theathleteslawyer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/05\/IMG_1085.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"588\" height=\"441\" srcset=\"https:\/\/landauinjurylaw.com\/theathleteslawyer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/05\/IMG_1085.jpg 640w, https:\/\/landauinjurylaw.com\/theathleteslawyer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/05\/IMG_1085-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 588px) 100vw, 588px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-9339\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">&#8220;Soccer Moms &amp; Dads&#8221; have nothing on Triathlon parents!

Managing to stay upright, and getting in several days of cycling, Landau copped a podium place while visiting his youngest daughter! He then returned to Virginia and got a bike from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenlizardcycling.com\/\">Green Lizard Cycles<\/a> in Herndon, that he could lease for the week. He also got lightweight racing wheels from his friends a <a href=\"https:\/\/transitiontri.com\/\">Transitions Triathlon<\/a> in Leesburg.

His fianc\u00e9 has a home in Church Hill, and Landau was able to visit with a half a dozen lawyers &amp; law firms before previewing the course. Just as he does for his trials, Landau likes to see the \u201clay of the land,&#8221;\u00a0 so he drove, biked and ran over the course on Friday. He then took part in several Endorphin Multisport clinics on site, as he was concerned about safety out on the course. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.endorphinfitness.com\/\">Team Endorphins<\/a> coaches who lead these clinics had a lot of experience at this race venue, and they went through group rides, practicing hairpin turns, drafting, transitions, and course strategy. Doug Landau has known race director Michael Harlow, who founded Endorphins and Live Red, since he was a boy. They have raced in Fredericksburg, Spotsylvania, Goochland, Richmond and elsewhere over the last THREE decades!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>There were over 700 athletes vying for junior and youth championships, World Championship slots, team bragging rights, and podium spots. Landau was in the second to last heat of the day, at almost 2 o\u2019clock in the afternoon, with the temperature in the mid 80s. He relishes hot conditions AND the ability to wear his wetsuit, both of which were here in Innsbrook. He was also thrilled that his son and future daughter-in-law would be there to cheer for him at the Innsbruck office lake, and the roads around Glen Allen, Virginia. The course was tight, with a 750M swim that required athletes go under a bridge<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_9348\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9348\" style=\"width: 280px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-9348\" src=\"https:\/\/landauinjurylaw.com\/theathleteslawyer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/05\/AGNC-RVA-2021-2nd-swim-exit-600x800.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"280\" height=\"373\" srcset=\"https:\/\/landauinjurylaw.com\/theathleteslawyer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/05\/AGNC-RVA-2021-2nd-swim-exit-600x800.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/landauinjurylaw.com\/theathleteslawyer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/05\/AGNC-RVA-2021-2nd-swim-exit-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/landauinjurylaw.com\/theathleteslawyer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/05\/AGNC-RVA-2021-2nd-swim-exit-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/landauinjurylaw.com\/theathleteslawyer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/05\/AGNC-RVA-2021-2nd-swim-exit.jpeg 864w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 280px) 100vw, 280px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-9348\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">AN &#8220;Action Shot&#8221; of Doug Landau exiting the water, taken by his son.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_9351\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9351\" style=\"width: 280px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-9351\" src=\"https:\/\/landauinjurylaw.com\/theathleteslawyer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/05\/AGNC-RVA-2021-water-exit-600x800.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"280\" height=\"373\" srcset=\"https:\/\/landauinjurylaw.com\/theathleteslawyer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/05\/AGNC-RVA-2021-water-exit-600x800.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/landauinjurylaw.com\/theathleteslawyer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/05\/AGNC-RVA-2021-water-exit-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/landauinjurylaw.com\/theathleteslawyer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/05\/AGNC-RVA-2021-water-exit-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/landauinjurylaw.com\/theathleteslawyer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/05\/AGNC-RVA-2021-water-exit.jpeg 864w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 280px) 100vw, 280px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-9351\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">It&#8217;s up the ramp while removing the goggles &amp; cap, then to focus on the 500M run to the bike transition area<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>TWICE, with zero visibility in the water.

As far as competing in Bermuda in draft legal format, Landau will either rent a bike there, or invest in a proper UCI legal road racing bicycle before hand, in order to practice pack riding, tight turning, and attacking more aggressively at top speeds. Like Richmond, the Bermuda course is very technical, with a hill famous known as &#8220;the corkscrew.&#8221; Landau does not intend to take his mother Bermuda, but perhaps Mrs. Landau, as a &#8220;thank you&#8221; trip for all of her hard work and patience during the pandemic. Who knows, she may even jump into the open citizens race and cop a prize!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 1rem\"> Just like when the ABRAMS LANDAU team tries injury cases or Worker\u2019s Compensation hearings, it was a team effort. His friends at Herndon&#8217;s Green Lizard Cycles were able to put him on a bike that fit, and which was legal for this kind of racing. Nearly all of the bike shops in Atlanta sold their inventory during the pandemic, so rental bikes are very hard to come by. His friends a Transitions Triathlon, in Leesburg, were able to put him on race wheels that worked with the disc brakes on the bike, which is safer and smoother into tight turns. And his friend Coach Rob <\/span><a style=\"font-size: 1rem\" href=\"http:\/\/colburnbodyconcepts.com\/\">Colburn of Colburn Body Concepts<\/a><span style=\"font-size: 1rem\"> and the Worldgate Masters Swim group was able to help transport the bike in order to get bikes and wheels, transferred after swim practice while the itinerant lawyer was on the road.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_9357\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9357\" style=\"width: 294px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-9357\" src=\"https:\/\/landauinjurylaw.com\/theathleteslawyer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/05\/IMG_1154-rotated.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"294\" height=\"392\" srcset=\"https:\/\/landauinjurylaw.com\/theathleteslawyer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/05\/IMG_1154-rotated.jpg 480w, https:\/\/landauinjurylaw.com\/theathleteslawyer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/05\/IMG_1154-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 294px) 100vw, 294px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-9357\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Endorphin Triathlon and Live Red Founder Michael Harlow worked his butt off to make the East Coast Triathlon Festival a success.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 1rem\">And, Landau would be remiss if he didn\u2019t think his son and future daughter-in-law, who cheered him on during the 10 (!) times he passed on this spectator friendly course. Lastly, the coaches race crew and members of Team Endorphin did their usual outstanding job of race production, support and positive vibe. Michael Harlow\u2018s several zoom clinics in the weeks prior to the race were helpful, and he answered every single question.\u00a0 He was even written up in <\/span><strong style=\"font-size: 1rem\">Triathlon<\/strong><span style=\"font-size: 1rem\"> magazine&#8217;s &#8220;coaches spotlight.&#8221; In racing like this, there are many technical rules. They include what you can wear, whether your belly button can show, when you can have a towel or a mat to dry off with after you exit the water, standing on the numbered spots at the start, penalties, etc. This was very different than the usual racing Landau does during the multi sport season. He met athletes from all over the country, and it was a very exciting day of racing. Landau looks forward to going to Bermuda (as he&#8217;s never been to that island country), representing the USA, and hopefully turning in a good race.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Stay tuned for more multi sport action and results from the triathlon trial lawyer!<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If there is a national, regional or world championship race within striking distance of the Landau Law Shop, you know Doug Landau is going to be at the starting line.
