Late Season Racing!

Updates from the late season:

Clearwater 70.3 World Champs--

Kathy Rakel killed it at Cleawater. Although she was 11th in her age group, she was 20th overall amateur! Tough age group! And her time of 4:25 placed her in teh top half of the pro field! Kathy will be moving up to the pro field for the 2010 season.

Scott Perrine had a stellar day as well. Scott was training for Ironman Arizona the following week, so went into Clearwater as a "training race." He killed it for a 20 minute PR with a time of 4:26, feeling relaxed the entire time!

Well done in Clearwater, guys!

Soma Half Ironman--

Kathy killed it here, too. SHe took 4th amateur overall, 2nd in her age group. 4:44.

Rebecca Tschider ran to a huge PR of 5:03 for 2nd in her age group as well! This was a great race for Bec and a huge breakthrough! Congrats!

Austin 70.3--

Jim Williamson completed his first Half Iron race! Not a bad time at all, but more a breakthrough in the distance than anything. Huge kudos to Jim!

Blue Water--

Leo Carrillo continued a great season with a 2nd overall at Blue Water!

On another note, 3 good friends took spills in races and weekend of Soma and Austin. Be careful out there. For John, AJ, and Kel: heal up quickly and get back out there!
