Great White North Triathlon

Last weekend was the ever popular Great White North Triathlon. In the past we have seen super hot and super cold days. On race day we saw pretty good race conditions. Favorable winds in the beginning and the rain seem to threaten but never really happened. Small crew from No Limits were racing today and I was lucky to be around to cheer everyone. Check out the video below and you can see that Kevin was happy to be racing again. He looked strong on the bike and run and finished in a very decent time of 4:45. Mike was also on the course today racing as himself and he was very happy with his day and finish at 5:51. Monica was using this race as a training day for IMC and the day started well with a good swim but soon on the bike she flatted. the repair van was quick to help but shortly after Monica flatted again and her day was done. Pulling out of a race is hard to do and that is why seeing Monica compete in the Sinister 7 relay this past weekend was so great. Monica felt strong throughout the 33 Km run and is really looking forward to IMC. :)

It was great to be on the course cheering so many familiar faces. We were able to cheer Ian's wife Kendall who was running very strong and set a PB on the day. Other familiar faces were Ken, Jason, Doug, Nola, Aundrea, Marianne, Cheryl and others.

Great job to all the athletes!
