Jackie took one more step toward her Big Goal, not giving up on a less than ideal day and leaving everything she had on the course. Love her grit and perseverance!
Ed Mugnani

Ed put up a 70.3 run PR off a bike with an increase of 10W - now that is a strong day!

Mike took nearly 20 minutes off his prior 70.3 run time despite a more challenging bike course (which he also crushed). Really solid day on the course for Mike!
