New Orleans 70.3 race held on April 17 faced such gusty conditions that the race director opted to cancel the swim portion of the run. This was a mixed blessing for Team Finsh Strong Racing athletes Michael Collins and Cindy McManis who hit the bike course with strong, fresh legs; but were unable to use this race as a qualifier for the 70.3 world championships.
Michael, 39, finished 28th in his AG with a strong 2:31:52 bike and 1:35:01 run -- meeting his race goal almost to the second. Michael finished the race with an overall time of 4:09:50.
Cindy, 51, came in 16th in her AG with a phenomenal 3:04:42 bike, followed by a 2:23:09 half marathon. Cindy's overall time was 5:31:24.
Congratulations, Michael & Cindy!
