Great weekend of racing! Ironman Texas is in the books for Colton Van Wagoner and Riley Wardrop—their first iron-distance race. Colton finished in 11:19 and Riley finished in 15:42! Pay special attention to Colton’s splits for those of you racing an Ironman later this year. This is a perfectly balanced Ironman race.
Colton’s splits:
Swim: 1:08
Bike: 5:58
Run: 4:03
Both transitions under 5 min
In Portland, OR, Galina Kelly ran the Portland ½ Marathon. She finished in 1:44 setting a PR by over 10 min and taking 6th in her AG.
And finally, nice to have a little bit of cloud cover this year for the Tempe International Triathlon. We enjoyed several PR’s, podium placings, and even Otter Pops! Congratulations to all our athletes!
