Good day to all.

Matthew, Mark and Michael participated in the Topeka 200k Brevet this past weekend. I know I had a blast with great company, the best weather and very nice roads.

This is what I had as far as time. If I am off Matthew or Mark will make corrections.

"Time on the bike was 6:31:?? total out time, Start to finish was 7:28:00 ,200 kilometer = 124.274 238 45 miles. A few of us set PR's today. You could not have scripted a better day in July for a little ride"

Good day to all.
Mark Horn and Michael Ruder traveled to  Des Moines, Iowa this weekend for the Hy-Vee Triathlon. Well we also traveled with his son who was to do the kids race on Saturday, his first but the rain delayed the start then it was canceled. Very sad day.

The Sunday Olympic triathlon was to start @ 6:00am with mass starts but with threatening weather approaching the race directors changed the event to a Sprint Triathlon, 400m swim, 10k bike, 5k run. We had a Time Trial start, one person every 4 seconds. Like crazy!

Mark Horn= M35/39 -- 29/141 -- 191/906 males Time= 1:08:51
Michael Ruder= M45/49 -- 30/94 -- 351/906 males Time= 1:13:01

Good day to all. I was reminded I had not posted results of the latest endeavor one of the Team members had completed a few weeks ago.

Our very own Mark Horn competed in the 2010 Kansas City Triathlon held on May 23rd 2010. The water was cold, a good size swell but manageable as I saw there where some fast swim times.
A bit of wind that morning I'd guess kept everyone in check.

Number of Finishers:	426
Number of Females:	102
