Brett Phillips, still very new to the sport, raced in the 20-24 year old divison and had a fantastic race with a time of 2:24.05. This was his first Olympic Distance race! He enjoyed the experience and is excited to take on this adventure in the coming years. Way to go Brett.

Erik Lovro raced in the 25-29 year old division. He had a PR by 2 min in the swim, a 5 min in the bike! Finishing with a time of 2:31.22, 4 min faster than the last time on this course. Great job Erik.

Barabara Logan had a fantastic race with a PR on this course by 16 minutes! Dropping 1.5 min in the swim, 10 min in the bike and 6 min in the run. Those track workouts are paying off! FANTASTIC!
