U<strong>Club</strong> Tri Team<br />

Invades Cohasset<br />

The U<strong>Club</strong> Tri team hit the beach &<br />

streets <strong>of</strong> Cohasset on June 26th! The<br />

Cohasset Tri is New England’s most<br />

popular Triathlon event, selling out<br />

within 2 hours and attracting 1000<br />

competitors! Cohasset draws the<br />

best athletes for it’s scenic beauty and<br />

challenging course. Our team hit the<br />

chilly (62 degree) water for a fast 400<br />

yard swim, onto the bike for a 12 mile<br />

ride through town <strong>of</strong> Cohasset with<br />

some slight hills, and twisting turns,<br />

the 3.2 mile run challenges all as you<br />

run along Jerusalem Road, and finish<br />

with a very long flat sprint.<br />

Betsy Feldmann, found her way to the<br />

podium to receive a medal for a sec-<br />

ond place finish in the women’s age<br />

group division with a time <strong>of</strong> 1:23:48.<br />

The Rubin family (Gary & Chrissy)<br />

put in the good effort and Chrissy<br />

had a personal best time(1:39:34).<br />

Todd Estabrook (1:22:28), Dave<br />

Dali(1:14:11), graciously invited eve-<br />

rybody that participated in the tri to<br />

an after tri party at his home... except<br />

the UCLUBBERS! Just kidding! Sheila<br />

Mulderig (1:42:45) could also be found<br />

on the course struggling with the tem-<br />

peratures as the day began to heat up.<br />

Native Cohasset resident and UCLUB<br />

member Tim Stanton was with his<br />

family cheering on all the competitors.<br />

Even Carol Pierce was quietly com-<br />

peting placing 3rd in her age group<br />

with a time <strong>of</strong> 1:12:41. Ex-UCLUBBER<br />

Brad Thomas was in awe <strong>of</strong> our team<br />

and it’s new gear. Not to be<br />

overlooked was Coach Dave Dornaus.<br />

CD was scurrying around the transi-<br />

tion area with his highly visible black<br />

& yellow Saucony’s & very <strong>of</strong>ficial<br />

vest. CD was like a proud parent as he<br />

watched his team in their cool new tri<br />

gear, dolphin into the water, jump on<br />

their bikes, and run like hell out <strong>of</strong> the<br />

transition area.<br />

Want to have some fun this sum-<br />

mer, join our tri team. Push yourself<br />

out <strong>of</strong> your comfort zone; participate<br />

in America’s fastest growing sport.<br />
