Chicago Triathlon

Congrats to Finish Strong's Alan Jones who won his 40-44 age group and came in 21st overall at the Chicago triathlon on August 30.  The race was sprint distance - 750 meter swim, 15 mile bike, and 5K run.  Alan finished in 1:21:12.  His splits were 13:47 swim (1:43 min/100 meter pace), 38:39 bike (23.29 mi/hour pace), and 22:52 run (7:23/mi mile).  Way to go!!

Alan reports that the day was "Awesome, clear, cold 64 degree swim in Lake Michigan, then an out and back on mild rollers along Lake Shore Drive, with a final run along Lake Michigan ending with a huge finish line crowd! 9,000 racers, great event!!!"
