Buffalo Triathlon Preview - This great event, which will celebrate its 8th anniversary on Sunday, has the distinction of being the largest (1500 participants) race in the Tri Minnesota Series.
It is also the most competitive race in the series. And this year's Buffalo Olympic Tri field, despite the absence of the 2010 and 2009 women's champs (Cathy Yndestad and Kortney Haag), both of whom are injured, and the fact that it shares its date with Pigman Sprint, where last year's Tri Buff men's winner (Patrick Parish) will be racing, will be as stout as ever....

NEWSY & NOTESY STUFF:
* The following records were broken at the 29th annual Apple Duathlon in Sartell last Saturday:
- DAN HEDGECOCK lowered the men's overall amateur record from 1:23:05 (Patrick Parish in 2010) to 1:21:31
- PAM STEVENS lowered Karen McKeachie's 55-59W mark (1:51:42 - 2009) by 12 seconds. Michigan's McKeachie, like Stevens, is one of American's all-time most decorated amateur females.
- MIKE COLAIZY's 1:40:52 lowered the 60-64M mark set by Californian Dennis Kasischke in '09 by a a hefty 1:29. Mike, who is extraordinarily cute for a man of his vintage, is not very tall as you can see from the photo (L), where he is bracketed by his bodyguards. Colaizy has a morbid fear of someone stealing his wine.
- BEN EWERS's 1:43:11 took a voracious 7:02 bite out of Bob Bailey's 65-69M best, set in 2009....
