2025 Minnesota Multisport Honors - MALE GRAND MASTER OF THE YEAR
Bonnie – In the previous 26 years of the MMHs no man over the age of 70 had been named Grand Master of the Year. There are several good reasons for this. Field size is one. Most notable though is the fact that Minnesota has been home to many world and national class 60-to-69-year olds. Greg Taylor and Tony Schiller and Ben Ewers raced at a world class level in their 60s, and guys like Tim Brown, Neil King and Bill Schmitt were not far behind.
Of the two 60-69ers nominees this year, Rod Raymond had best lived up to the standards set by the aforementioned men. His Age Group record at Ironman 70.3 Michigan was particularly impressive, and his effort at Northwoods was only seconds behind Neil King's long-standing mark. Rod's Shell Lake effort was very solid, but in my opinion, he needed one more elite performance to upend my pick for GMOY....

Wollongong Australia Age Group World Championships Olympic Distance race report! -
Swim: Awesome! Best ocean swim I’ve ever done. It was clear, I was used to the water, and the waves didn’t bother me. I felt confident the whole way
Bike: I dropped my water bottle right away and had to go back to get it- these moments make me wish it was an Ironman so that amount of time wouldn’t matter as much.The course was 3 loops with several U-turns, which made it quite congested! I felt like I was in a draft legal cycling race for a lot of it and the technical turns were not in my favor either- I know I can improve here. It was super fun, though- for some reason the 3 loops made it feel really exciting!
Run: I’ll take it- it felt ok, but of course the 35-39 wave didn’t start until 930 so we were running in some heat. I also have to keep in mind I didn’t start doing speed workouts until July due to hip stuff, so with another year of training I know there’s more room for improvement here too!
