MTC "Dominates the Dojo" at Jackson County Triathlon!

Results from the Jackson County Triathlon are up and MTC athletes did some serious butt kicking.  The group was led by Kelly Dippold, Michelle Arzubi & Carrie Tysdale who swept the podium going #1-2-3 in the Women's Division.  (These three also beat a lot of men going 7th, 11th and 14th overall!)  They were about 4 minutes apart, the next women was almost 11 minutes back.  Wow!

The men were led by Preston Williams who, despite a recent shoulder injury and a bike accident during the race, was 6th overall and won the 25-29 AG.  Another AG winner was Mike Malfer who led the M35-39 division; should set him up for a great race at Ironman Wisconsin in a few weeks.  The Men's Clydesdale division was won by Brian Gillespie in 2:07:34 which would have seen him place 2nd in his AG if he'd raced "non-Clydesdale".

The Short course also saw two podium performances.  Brian Dufner set a huge PR, finishing 2nd in the M30-34 and Peter Paulin won the M40-44 race.

Congratulations to all MTC athletes and other competitors at this year's Jackson County Triathlon.
