Blaine Triathlon - Despite the crappy weather that forced a late start, a number of athletes managed to muscle through the rain, wind and slick, slow-to-zero mph turns and rewrite some records. The overall winners were awesome, each taking gluttonous bites from the CRs. For Brett Lovaas, his 1:09:15 was a flabby 4:30 faster than the men's winning time in 2012. The victory was the 28th of his impressive career.
Last year's Rookie of the Year, Heather Lendway, chewed an even more elephantine-ish chunk --7:05!--from the the previous women's mark on this .3 swim (59-degrees), 16.7 bike, 3.5 run. Her stellar 1:16:30 landed her in 5th place overall and delivered her to the finish line almost ten minutes ahead of the women's runner-up. Awesome performance. Her young career now boasts three victories, one 2nd and three 3rds. Making Team Minnesota in one's second year of racing is a monumental feat. We suspect that there will be a spot on the prestigious Team for Heather at season's end....

Central Lakes Cycle Race Report -
Overall winner Dave Jensen had double duty. One of the second leg bikers for a relay team did not show, so after completing the individual event, Dave was able to bike the second leg....a second time! And the following day, Dave was scheduled to depart for California where he begins a cross country bike trip to Georgia, hoping to complete the 2500 mile journey in 15-20 days time....

Race Preview - The 9th annual LAND BETWEEN THE LAKES TRIATHLON will take place on Sunday at Edgewater Park in Albert Lea. Registration is still open. A link to the event website is at the bottom of the post.
This sprint tri is the 2nd event in the popular Tri Minnesota Series and is owned and / or managed by by Final Stretch, which produces many of our state's premier multis. We though it would be cool to share the Podium History of the event. We also hope to see you at Edgewater Park next Sunday.
