Take the Hill Race Report - 88 masochistic idiots raced in Saint Peter last weekend...

A frozen time was had by all at the Gustavus-TTHTri on Saturday. Low 30's, 15-20mph wind, and a spatter of rain. T1 took 5 minutes so we could dry off and put our snowpants on. First sip of water on the bike cracked the ice in the water bottle. At T2, hopped off the bike so I...

Event Previews - Two duathlons are slated for Saturday, May 11. One is 12-years-old, the other is celebrating its second anniversary.

The race is in Fergus Falls and it's called the Central Lakes Cycle Duathlon. Last year's race was won by local stud, David Jensen, and Alexandria studette Angie Johnson....

Weekend Racing Stuff...UPDATED...

logoCOLT Pre-Coverage - In a landmark study at Morningwood Academy, it was proven that yucky weather can have an adverse effect on performance. This may or may not have been proven true yesterday in Alexandria at the 12th annual Chain of Lakes Triathlon. On Tuesday, we hope, former Alex-ian Angie Hop, who may or may not have won yesterday, will file a race report that could suggest that the race-day weather in her ancestral hometown totally sucked. It should be noted here that it is possible to have fun at races that are contested in crummy weather. Ang will probably comment on that. She may mention that a guy whose name rhymes with Strarcus Momberg may or may not have also repeated as champion and whether she did or did not "Shoot the Minnow" on race eve. COLT RESULTS

Cinco Du Mayo Duathlon - It didn't snow and temps maxed out at a balmy 37 degrees. The 180ish of the 250ish pre-registered athletes that made the trek out to Square Lake learned that a race doesn't have to be poopy just because the weather is. It was a day for dressing in layers,...

About 25 men gathered Sunday around a TV screen in a large tent at Portofino Island Resort watching videos of themselves training.

A few were missing limbs. The rest had less obvious wounds, such as brain injuries or post-traumatic stress disorder....
