Revolution 3 Triathlon
Sandusky, OH (Cedar Point Amusement Park)
Sept 12, 2010
I was compelled to come up to sherpa for my triathletes at this race, and some exceptional circumstances allowed me to join them on the trip. I was glad that things worked out that I could join them, because it was a truly awesome trip. Cedar Point has a really fun-looing cadre of roller coasters, and the whole place is on an amazing island in Lake Erie.
The STtrainer contingency at Rev3 Cedar Point (from left): Corrie, Joleyn, Dean, Kevin, Beth, Barry, Sioban. Front row: Becky, coach Stephen.
Pre-race spin with Becky and Joleyn in the beautiful Ohio contryside.
STtrainer Athletes Finishing Times:
Kevin Clouse 5:51
Amanda Parsons 6:03
Barry Smith 6:05
Becky Sharpe 6:16
Joleyn Smithing 6:18 ("and she's really really happy!")
Corrie Logan 6:30
Dean Britt 6:46
Will post some fun pictures over in the coaching blog, but here are the race photos:
Corrie smiling away some pre-race jitters.
Amanda with her cheering patrol--Dad.
A women's wave ready to hit the water.
Dean after a great swim.
Kevin crushing the bike course. Last year at Beach to Battleship he finished last among ~8 team mates. This year he was first among the team with a HUGE personal best time.
Barry running strong with a 6 hour finish in the crosshairs.
Amanda feeling strong (and smiling) on the run course.
Corrie finished the run by repeating this mantra: I love ST. This is fun. I love ST. This is fun.
Corrie was the instigator of this whole trip and inspired a lot of her team-mates to make the goal with her.
Dean Britt with a stong steady finish into the Cedar Point Park.
He beat his estimated finish time by 45 minutes.
