This Sunday, June 11, more than 2,000 triathletes are expected to complete the Escape from Alcatraz triathlon, more than six decades after a couple of the most famous prison breaks in history from what was then known as the Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary.
In this episode of Bay Current, KCBS Radio’s Mallory Somera caught up with KCBS Radio reporter Jim Taylor, who got to speak with one of the Bay Area-born triathletes participating this year.
