Try Paddle Tri

I've come up with a unique and crazy idea to see the sights and to enjoy the coolness of the wind.  It's called a Pad, Bike, Run or PBR for short.  Can't think of a better name, but would be happy to listen to suggestions.

The event starts off with a paddle from National Harbor, MD to Georgetown, DC.  Or if the wind shifts from the north, then we start in GT and finish at National Harbor.  (If the winds are calm, our starting point is National Harbor where we can launch).

Then a bike back to either GT or NH via SE DC.  During this ride, we will go off the beaten path to some of DC's most historic and enamored streets along Martin Luther King, Ave, Alabama Ave, South Capitol St.  Then a scenic ride along the soon-to-be-developed Oxon Hill Trail.

The route takes us from Oxon Run Trail to South Capitol St and then to Indian Head Highway.

Then a run from Georgetown to National Harbor (or vice versa) via the Mount Vernon Trail.

There are scenic and serene places to stop for sightseeing and reflection along the way:

The SE Anacostia Loop

This Thanksgiving weekend, a few of us hardy souls will attempt to do a 12-mile Md to DC SUP followed by a 15-bike loop and a 10-mile run

The bike loop will be different since we will be biking the SE quadrant to National Harbor.

This is the route from Anacostia to NH:
