Both of their bike legs were competitive with the top pro women triathletes!

Honorable mention also goes to Tom Guerin who took 14th of 68 in his age group for his first race of the season! Tom's swim leg was one of the fastest at 32:58. His bike and run splits were 59:32 and 1:05:41. Great job Tom.
