SHE DID IT! East Gull Lake's Michelle Andres just set an amateur course record at Ironman Wisconsin! Her time was 10:05:30, an eight minute improvement, we believe (we'll check ASAP!), on the prior CR and a whopping 58-minute bettering of her former PR, set on this course in 2008. We could not be happier for you, Michelle! More words and photos to come!
Suzie Fox lost her IM virginity in a magnificently impressive way. Her time was brilliant, a 10:38:43, which placed her 1st in the 25-29W AG, 14th woman overall / 6th amateur. Kona 2013! How cool is that!
Kortney Haag's intro to IMing produced a 10:49:46, which landed her in 6th place in the 30-34W division. Way to rock, Kort!
TIMES & PLACES:
* Heidi Keller-Miler - 11:03:42 (1st IM!) - 3rd 45-49W
* Leah Prudhomme - 11:06:25 - PR - 8th 30-34W...

Hy Vee AG Triathlon Race Report - First off this race was quite an experience for me with all of the pre-race logistics of packet pick-up, mandatory pre-race athlete meeting, bike check-in and the like. It really took me out of my comfort zone of pre-race prep and...

August; The Good, The Bad & The Painful
The first weekend of August I had an 8:09 half marathon PR by following a written progressive run workout at the Optumhealth Performance Minnesota Half Marathon. This was also at the tail end of a 24 hour training week with no taper and 2:20 of training the day before which was great news for the rest of my season which is all long course. My official time ended up being 1:30:13 so I wish I would have been paying a little bit more attention and snuck in at sub 1:30 just :14 faster. Next time! ...
