Congratulations to our new MN State Champ, James Van Sloun! And also to Emma Malla-McDermott who got 2nd place in her field. Incredible performance by West River Racing.

Ben also raced and enjoyed his brief moments of glory in a two lap breakaway to kick off the M4/5 race.

Congrats to our racers and thanks to those that came out to support them!

What a Weekend for Megan Webster!

As if winning her age group in the 10K TT at the MN Senior Games on Saturday wasn’t enough, Megan Webster went straight to the track and medaled in both the 400m and 800m events.

Then today, she competed in the Women’s Triathlon at Lake Nokomis, taking 1st in her age group and finishing in the top 10% of nearly 900 competitors!

What an incredible weekend. Congratulations, Megan!
