Vineman Showdown
April 17, 2010
Welcome to the Fourth Annual Vineman Showdown, a new race that brings exciting and welcome changes to your typical race day. Twenty one years of experience has taught the team at Vineman many lessons. The most important lesson learned is to listen, understand, and deliver when our loyal Vineman participants ask. We have done just that with the Vineman Showdown.
Are you tired of getting up before the farm animals just to get to the transition area on time? Well, on race day . . . go ahead . . . sleep in until late morning! Race time is 4:00 pm!
The Vineman Showdown will be held on April 17, 2010 in San Rafael, CA (about 20 minutes north of San Francisco). The event will consist of a ¼ mile swim in San Pablo Bay at high tide, an out and back 9 mile bike course that meanders beautiful China Camp State Park, and a fast 3 mile out and back run along the bay.
Enjoy the beautiful race venue at McNears Beach Park with a single transition - no point to point! Easy parking, easy to get to, fantastic post race atmosphere!
No more room in your dresser drawer for another Race T-shirt? We thought so . . . enjoy a custom pair of event socks!
If you aren't one of the more than 20,000 athletes from around the world who has experienced one of our many events, we welcome you to join us for this second annual event. If you are a Vineman Veteran, we look forward to seeing you again this year and adding another Vineman event to your scorecard!
What isn't new and different? The professional organization and amenities you all have enjoyed and come to expect from the Vineman Events for the past 20 years!
