I am in Campinas, Brazil and was looking for a website or something to find any running/multisport races this weekend. If anyone has any info on websites in Brazil, I would appreciate it. I tried using the search function in the forum, but all topics on Brazil are for IM Brazil.
Send me a PM or reply to this post.

If you want, we have te most important tri circuit/championship closing race this weekend (Sunday) here in Santos. We are on the east coast 1,5h-2h from you in Campinas.
I can register you on the race if you want. Please let me know asap. PM me or post again on this topic.
It’s a short triathlon and we have the option to race the whole course alone or as a relay option (if you want just to race on one of the disciplines).
My phones are: (13) 3222-1614 or mobile (13) 8134-7562. Ask for Marcos Amaral if someone that do not speak English answers the phone.
Do you speak any portuguese?
Will look for something else and let you know! But this is a very nice race, if possible, come down here, you can stay at home 5 minutes from race start, we can lend a bike to you and arrange everything here, do not worry.
My mail is mapenedoamaral@uol.com.br
See you, regards, Marcos.

This is the race website (if you change the last two letters to en (english maybe you can have the page translated). Nina Kraft is racing here this weekend. If you have a 2h15’-2’25’ (need to know what age-group do you compete) for an Oly race you can race as an “elite-amateur” and race an oly distance just like the pro’s!
This last race is with 800 athletes already registered and it will go untill 1000 athletes.
If I were you I wouldn’t loose this opportunity! Worth it.
If you are not using a car, there are hourly buses from Campinas to Santos and I can help you with accomodation and transportation down here in the beach. Also, a close friend is coming from Campinas this Saturday to race on Sunday and can give you a ride.
Let me know!
Marcos.
Hi Joel! Any news about Carol Montgomery? She is always here on January to compete in our International race (part of the almost extinct TPT) and she is not answering my mails anymore.
Thanks, Marcos.
Another phones to find me: (11) 9919-6588 or (13) 3234-3117.
Hope you can get the messages in time, Marcos.
Marcos, I sent you an e-mail and tried to leave a message. I will attempt to call again at 8:30.
Hey, while you’re racing down in Brazil don’t forget to sign up for Wildflower. Although it looks like Wildflower wont sell out till early next year.
