This is about Rincon, Puerto Rico.
The
things about Rincon that I like, and many others come
for. Rincon has changed in the last few years.
But
there is still the "old" Rincon here, the Rincon that I am here
for, and many of you come here for.
The
roadside stands, the surf, the guesthouses, apartments and
houses that you love.
All
of the purely Rincon things are still here.
And
this site features them.

Triathlon:

The Rincon Triathlon began in 1982, as an athletic activity by the Rincon
Community Youth Center and Dr. Hector Nazario, on behalf of the Rincon Rural
Health Initiative Project. It was so popular with the town community that it was
repeated the following year as part of the activities related to the Santa Rosa
Festival. After this successful second event, the Rincon Triathlon became an
annual event and grew in size and popularity with the Triathlete community -
held on the second Sunday of June.
