It’s that special time of the year when romance, pollen, and the triathlon season begin to bloom. Our YMCA Runners competed in two events during the weekend of March 15: the Wildman Sprint and Olympic distance triathlons and the last race of the Hillbilly Racing Series in Melbourne, the Eye of the Dragon 10k.
WILDMAN SPRINT & OLYMPIC DISTANCE TRIATHLONS
Our Wild Men (and one Wild Woman) fought off amoebas and each other to bring home some impressive hardware and race times in the Sprint and Olympic distances.
Sprint Distance:
Sean McCormack (2nd Age Group) 1:07:33
Chris Bolfing (3rd Age Group) 1:12:19
Rachel Coursey 1:41:13
Olympic Distance:
Paul Duckett: (2nd Age Group) 1:39:34
E. J. Wunderlich (3rd Age Group) 1:42:32

EYE OF THE DRAGON 10K
The race brochure for this race described a gentle run over a “scenic causeway.” Unfortunately, the race materials failed to mention that the causeway is connected to a 1.5 mile long monster bridge buffeted by 20 mph winds that you have the pleasure of running over TWICE. Despite a difficult course and Brewer’s constant complaining, Masters Swim Champion Ryan Hall brought home her first ever running hardware. Here are the results:
Teresa Calio 3rd Overall 41:28
Ryan Hall 2nd Age Group 49:32
Kurt Brewer 1st Age Group 40:02
