A nice day once again for the Bucyrus YMCA Triathlon, which was held on Saturday, May 28th.  The event, which consisted of a 500-yard swim, a 12-mile bike ride, and a 3.5-mile run, welcomed a field of 49 individuals and 13 teams. (Our numbers were down this year - we're blaming the $4.00 gas prices).

Our winners this year were both repeaters from 2010.  The winner of the Men’s division was Andy Gerken with a time of 58:46.  Winning the Women's division was Jennifer Brown in a time of 1:12:20. 

The top Crawford County Male was Donald Holter in 1:07:22. There were no Female Crawford County participants this year.

In the Team divisions, The Arse Kickers won the Coed Team (1:13:33), School's Out won the Female Team (2:00:00), and Flex Fitness Club won the Men's Team (1:05:49).  

We'd like feedback on the Triathlon.  Whatever comments or questions (or kudos) you have, please email them to our race director at kchavatzas@bucyrusymca.org; she's passing the comments on to me and we'll try to get them up on the web page.
