XTERRA Magnolia Hills Tri


Finish Strong Racing Greg Gibbons and Mike Bard finished neck and neck at the recent XTERRA Magnolia Hills Triathlon - a rugged offroad triathlon. Greg finished 25th and Mike 26th for the entire male 39 and under competitors.

Mike was in the lead after the swim posting a 13:51 time compared to Greg's 15:48. Greg edged ahead on the bike with a 1:33:49 versus Mike's 1:35:21, Greg finished the day with a final run in 50:51 (12:43 per mile pace) to edge out Mike who ran the final leg in 55:18 (13:50 pace). If you think these times are slow, guess again! The run and bike courses were on slow, sandy trails.

Congrats to two fine competitors!
