The 6th Annual ITC Pan American Roatan Triathlon is being held here on our island May 4th, 2008. I've provided the link to the website. The sponsor hotel is Henry Morgan's this year in West Bay, all-inclusive. The good thing this year is they are having a week-long triathlon camp to help triathletes with training/planning/etc.
The one thing I have asked is whether they are going to have a 3000 meter swim like last year; the 3000 swim is on the swim course map, but not in the original description. I haven't heard back. But I would choose that event if for no other reason than there is "not much traffic" in that swim.
You can fly here direct from Newark, NJ, Houston, Atlanta, as welll as Italy. Here's the link: www.bayislandstriathlon.com/
Roatan is one beautiful island to challenge yourself to a triathlon.
