TT women 1,2,3 @ KIC Tri




Sunday kicked of the second edition of the Kids in Crisis Triathlon in Stamford. A field of 500 athletes made their way from the Sound to north Stamford in this Olympic distance race and TT had a great showing. On the men's side Jonny Bax (endale) and Dave "old school" Yockelson tore through the route making good pace and wrapping up in the top 20 (results are delayed...not my fault!).

However, this day was all about the TT members sporting two "X" chromosomes. Megan, Suzie, Kristen and Laurie took control of the race right from the start and didn't look back. Megan "Pride of Stamford" Kelly led the charge with a blistering bike leg getting to the 2nd transition as the first place female. Kristen, Laurie and Suzie were in hot pursuit and by the first mile of the run Meg had a little over 2 minutes on Suzie and Kristen. All total TT had 4 of the top 5 postions on the road. That is when Suzie and Kristen found the extra gear and kicked it in. Keeping pace with each other they pushed to first and second overall with Megan taking the last podium spot. Laurie "I have a decade and 3 kids" Brannigan closed it out in 6th. place smiling all the way.
