Wildflower!

The Green Athlete had another successful event at the Wildflower Triathlon Festival this past weekend. The Green Athlete Van traveled to Lake San Antonio early in the week so Pro Triathlete Chris Lieto could get in some last minute training before the race on Saturday. We filled up on bio-diesel fuel before we left and a few hours later we arrived at our camp.

The always comfortable ride was even better this time around as we added a new sponsor to the program - Sony - who outfitted the van with a flat screen TV and a Sony Playstation III. The crew was able to play a little Guitar Hero every night before bed. And I won't share how many tines we watched Anchorman.

Each day the van and the appliances were powered up by the solar panels on top of the van provided by Sungevity. It was a great feeling knowing we were getting our energy direct from the sun. We served coffee every morning to other athletes who were camping nearby. They were able to stop by each morning and re-use the great Green Athlete coffee mugs provided by Trek.

K-Swiss provided us with some great Green Athlete tees that we were able to give out to supporters. Next time you see us at an event be sure to stop by and get one. Next up - Boise 70.3!
