Mighty Hamptons Triathon Sunday September 17, 2006

This was the 25th year anniversary of the Mighty Hamptons Triathlon in Sag Harbor, New York; a Swim of 1.5K (.93mile), a Bike of 40K (23.0 miles), and a Run of 10K (6.2 miles). The weather was ideal and Noyac Bay looked like a mirror, making race conditions perfect. If I missed any results from our “group”, please let me know.

Scott Kessler took 1st Place in the 40-44 Age Group in a time of 2:13:09 and was the 8th Place Overall Finisher out of 721 – way to go Scott!

In the 45-49 Age Group, Roger Levin finished 24th out of 66 in a time of 2:42:14.

In the 50-54 Age Group, Don Bond finished in Second Place, (out of 42 in his age group), in a time of 2:25:33.
