WOW, what a weekend!! The weather gods made it one of the best weekends ever for our Annual Kain Performance trek to the coast! Saturday was a beautiful day, then dinner with everyone on Saturday night in HMB was great! We woke up to another nice day on Sunday for our run along the coast, then a great homemade breakfast at the Zaballa House! The ride up Tunitas Creek was great too!
The KP Team was in fine form over the entire weekend, with many great new stories to tell! We have our Santa Barbara Training Weekend coming up in a few weeks, so lets hope for some more of that fabulous California weather! For more information about the Santa Barbara Triathlon Training Weekend, call Jody 408-466-0886
We have to thank Jody Gold for making all of our dinner arrangements and setting up the hotel deals with the Zaballa House and San Benito House. She also helped with the SAG duties, as well as making sure everyone who needed a map got one! Thanks Jody!
We also have to thank our wonderful KP Team manager, Judy Desherlia, for her SAG duties on Saturday! Always a great SAG enthusiast! Big THANKS also to Faye, Gerald's friend who Sag'd on Saturday and Sunday!! Thanks Faye, you were great!! Thanks go to Ralph Fallent who also SAG'd on Sunday to the top of Tunitas Creek!
Big THANKS to all of our great coaches out there too! Thanks to Paul Gallo, Randy, Greg and Russell for the help on the way out Saturday and to John Magee and Karl (with a K) and Paul B. for the help both Saturday and Sunday!

**Swim - Saturday swim of 2,000-4,000 yards at LG Masters.

**Bike - Sunday ride of 47-50 miles. Add Tunitas Creek for a good 2,000 ft. elevation gain. HMB-LG.
**Run - Saturday - Off the bike run for 20-30 minutes. Along the coastal bike path. BEAUTIFUL! 2-4 miles.
**Run - Sunday - Longer run for 45 minutes-1.5 hours. 6-12 miles. Along the coastal bike path and out toward the Harbor and back.
**Cold dunk - Ocean dip for Coach Kain and a few others on Saturday after the run! Nothing like a good soak in ice cold water to wake you up!
