Sorry for the delay in our Kona Report!!
Well its always a great day in Kona:) but this year was even better in terms of the weather. There where limited swells in the swim (but still a decent current that you swam against on the way home) and very little wind on the bike, with a light layer of cloud that was around for pretty much the whole day so some great conditions!
This is Ken, Ali and Shannon looking ready to go race morning!
The NRGPT team did great! Our 4 first timers had good days with Luke leading the way at 9:40 and Bill surviving 3 flat tires to get to the line as well. Congrats to Ali and Scott on their first races here also. James lead the way in 9:29 with a 3:18 run and Ken wasn’t far back in 9:38 with a 4:45 bike split and Shannon set a new Kona PB with a 10:15. Catharine Daly had a ton 10 finish with an 8th in her age group as well. Congrats to everyone!
One of the nicest places to swim!
