Olympic
Brodie- Won his division with authority, posting the 3rd fastest swim, THE fastest bike and quick T1/T2 to top the competition.

Downpours, wind, thunder and dropping temps… we had it all for the 27th running of the Crazylegs Classic.   But the weather did not slow down the Madison Multisport team. 

Congrats to all our teammates that participated in this 8K crazy race.

What a Team!

Congrats to the Madison Multisport athletes who celebrated St. Patrick’s Day by participating in the Shamrock Shuffle 5K/10K.

5K
Jeanne M- The duet of Jeanne and Nell encouraged each other every step of the way, showing that racing is a lot more fun when shared with teammates.
Nell B- No longer a 5K virgin, Nell completed her first running event in record time. I have a feeling we are going to see a lot of PR’s from this girl this season.
JenRN- The pager didn’t buzz, so she got to complete the day, crossing the finish line in the top ½ of her age group and overall for the women.

10K
Dave D- Loving every minute of Observatory Drive, Dave charged to the line for top 1/3 in his age group and top 1/3 overall.
Jen M- Jigging as if it were easy, Jen raced to the top 20 in her age group and top 10% for all women
Dennis H- Racing for a stepping stone to the Madison Marathon, Dennis clipped off a fierce pace for 3rd in his age group.

I cannot believe we are already through the first few weeks of January and moving with full steam into the new year.

The Madison Multisport team is ‘back in the saddle’ and training to reach their 2009 goals.  An exciting year of training and racing events awaits.  In this pre-season time, we have our goals set on some great local running events; including the Shamrock Shuffle, Monona 20K, Madison Marathon, and CrazyLegs Classic.  Most of us will start out the year with the local season opener, the Lake Mills Triathlon (sprint) and also our backyard favorite, the Verona Triterium Triathlon.  We have claimed “The Door County Triathlon” as our team destination race with teammates in both the sprint and half-ironman events.  We’ll be looking to wrap up our season at Ironman Wisconsin, the Devil’s Challenge Triathlon, or a fall marathon challenge.

In addition to our Madison Multisport Team training, we are offering a number of clinics and events in our community.  Check out our FREE Race Preview Clinics, Open Water Swim Training, and new this year, Women’s Only Triathlon Clinics at the Madison Trek Store.

It is going to be an exciting and successful season for the Madison Multisport Team.  We hope you will check in often and join us on our journey as we pursue our goals with passion. 

Devil’s Challenge Triathlon
¼ mile swim, 15 mile bike, 3 mile runThree MM teammates capped off their season with great success at beautiful Devil’s Lake State Park this past weekend.

Christian G – Living proof that hard work does pay off, CG raced to a 13 minute PR in this event. He was 6th out of the water and placed in the top 20% in his division.

Ed P – Fast Eddie claimed the top spot in every single aspect of his age group. His speedy swim-bike-run launched him to the top spot on the podium.

Ben P – The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree…. Ben came out of the water 1st, posted the 2nd fastest bike split, and held on with a solid 5k to claim 1st place in his division.

Ironman Wisconsin – September 7, 2008 was an exciting day for the entire MM crew. 10 teammates raced; 5 newbies and 5 veterans of the IM distance. Nine teammates were able to achieve their finish line goals and one, ending up in the ER, will be back next year for some unfinished business. Congrats to all our athletes for your amazing achievement and for showing the rest of us what it looks like to pursue your goals with passion. And thanks to the rest of the team for your endless support as volunteers and cheerleaders throughout the day. I think all our Ironman teammates agree that they couldn’t have done it without your support.
