TrySports in Mt. Pleasant for clothing. They have good customer service and good selection of shoes and clothing. For biking needs, I will drive 4 hours to The Right Gear in Kannapolis, NC. I just like the owner in Kannapolis.

Want to swim? Try the MLK pool in downtown Charleston. You only want to swim here during the day, but it is a great 50 meter heated pool with bubble. The pool is located near the "not so nice part of Charleston", but I always feel safe and the pool is home to many swimmers and triathletes. You pay $1.00 if you check city resident, otherwise you have for fork over $2.00. Some of the local bike shop owners swim at this pool.

You have to run across the bridge when in town. I work d-town so let me know, so let me know if you need any other information.

You absolutely must stop by Patt and Mike Loggins's "The Extra Mile" store on King Street, downtown. They are longtime area triathlon supporters/organizers/racers. You can find plenty of clothing (mostly running), and other assorted tri-related gear.

Also...you MUST run a loop around the Battery, Calhoun street, up to and through The Citadel campus, and back. You can deviate plenty off the straight loop and cover much of what is special about downtown Charleston. Other good runs include the beach at Isle of Palms and Hampton park/The Citadel area.

As far as bike stuff...I'll leave that to others. I am a former resident, and frequent re-visitor (inlaws)...but I've lost touch with the bike shops. The last time I was there the bike shops I used to use had all gone downhill some. Too many young college types working there that didn't know much about what they were selling or doing.

Also, if you're looking for good training while you are down there...Mike and Patt can hook you up with some good folks.
