Summer practices
Summer practices for team members, new members, friends of members, and anyone else are starting this week. We have decided that enough people are around the area during the summer that we will be able to get a few small practices going. Check this thread for an update on the run workouts (T/R/Weekend), and I will make a post about a Long bike workout starting next weekend (6/14) after I am out of town for the Capitol View race this weekend.
Pigman Results
Congrats to the Pigman finishers!!!
This weekend (June 1st) was the Pigman sprint distance race. Because the race filled up so quickly, we had to beg to get a few extra spots for the race so that we could have a team put together for the competition. Only 5 trihawks competed as part of the team, but we had a few others there too. The team consisted of: Wes and Erin Anderson, Jason Maurice, Steve Davis, and Jaci Grafenberg. We just missed winning a prize finishing in third place, just behind Midwest Xtreme :( BUT: All 5 racers won an age group award! Actually, Erin finished 7th overall female in the race! Wes and Jason won their age groups, and Jaci was 3rd, and Steve was 4th. Here is a picture of the team with their Pig trophies:
Left to right: Steve, Erin, Wes, Jason, Jaci
Congrats also to Sean Vostatek, Becky Johnson, and Sarah Mugge (and anyone else I missed) who all finished the race as well.
