USA Triathlon Youth National Champion!



On August 6, Finish Strong Racing's Lane Barron from The Woodlands won the 11-12 boys division at USA Triathlon Youth Nationals in San Diego on the strength of a division best bike split, averaging 21.1 mph on the 10k bike course. He also used fast transitions and a strong run to edge out Charlie Velez of California and Drew Sotebeer of Colorado by 5 and 10 seconds respectively. This was Lane's third trip to Youth Nationals. This year's race helped erase some bad memories for Lane, as two years ago, Lane had his race come to a disappointing end with a flat tire on the bike course. Congratulations, Lane!
