NYC Triathlon: Osaly, R. Wassner Win Steamy NYC Tri; Website Down

Rebeccah Wassner of NYC won her second straight New York City Triathlon today and Filip Osaly of the Czech Republic took the men's division, according to an article posted at Triathlon.competitor.com.

The article says today's NYC Tri was the warmest ever, with the temperature hitting 88 degrees at about 11 a.m. A few running buddies I follow on Twitter have reported that they are "surviving" the race, so although they're having a tough time with the conditions, it sounds like they've all managed to finish.

Unfortunately the NYC Triathlon website, www.nyctri.com, isn't faring as well as the competitors; it's been giving a "Site Unavailable" message all morning. The good news is that the NYC Tri Twitter page, www.twitter.com/nyctriathlon, is working, and updates are being provided there. They say they will continue giving updates via Twitter until the website is back up.

As for NYC Triathlon results, the Twitter account says they will be available this afternoon and the URL for results will be posted on Twitter.

2009 Peachtree Road Race... Trouble Getting on ajc.com/peachtree Resolved

Registration opened today for the 2009 Peachtree Road Race in Atlanta, and glitches immediately popped up with the online registration process. The home page for Peachtree, www.AJC.com/peachtree, now seems to be working. The Peachtree Road Race takes place on the Fourth of July.

From an article on the Peachtree site:
"Online registration for The Atlanta Journal-Constitution Peachtree Road Race, which opened at 7 a.m. Sunday, is continuing after initial technical issues.

Those issues were resolved shortly after 9 a.m., according to the Atlanta Track Club, and registration is proceeding until 45,000 entries have been received."

The article notes that printed entries will be in the Sunday, March 22, Atlanta Journal-Constitution, "But only the final 10,000 entrants using that method will gain entry to the race, selected at random from forms postmarked by March 31."

Race entry is also possible by entering in a competition to choose the t-shirt design for the Peachtree Road Race.

Good luck with your entries!
