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 />
