Hy-Vee Triathlon - 9/2/12

Hy-Vee Triathlon and 5150 US Championship
Des Moines, IA – Sept. 2^nd, 2012

The Hy-Vee triathlon has a tradition of being one of the biggest races in the US with the largest cash prizes for the winners.  As such it has drawn some top-notch talent.  This year it also hosts the 5150 Championships (Olympic distance).  We had two club members racing this year.  Alex qualified for the 5150 age group elite championship division earlier in the year and Erich was competing in the age group division.  Both divisions consisted of a 1.5k swim, 40k bike, and 10k run.
