FEATURES

Great Moments...

dogTriathlon.competitor.com recently posted their "Top 10 Triathlon Moments of 2010." We stumbled upon this when we were scouring the Internets for cool things to purloin. Before that we found the Gary Larson cartoon displayed here, which made us laugh until the onset of urinary crisis.

But we digress.

The tri website feature was all about pro stuff, of course, but it motivated the damp-trowsered MTN staff, actually we have a "Stafflette," since there are only three of us (not counting a bevy of occasional contributors), to think about the Minnesota's Top 10 Triathlon Moments of 2010. In no particular order, here are four of the coolest things, in our most humble opinions, that happened last season...

cyPRO LICENSE - In 2002 there was a marginal ROY candidate named Cathy Yndestad, who has gone on to become "Minnesota's Triathlete of the Decade." Like DKT in 2004 and Devon Palmer in 2009, Cathy has procured a pro card. Yes, she is going to have to get used to getting beaten, but the former US Athlete of the Year has always been motivated to push her limits; to seek her personal perfection. She may be competitively anonymous for a little while but she WILL get faster, which is what she's after. We applaud you, Cathy.
