Honu Half Ironman - 2009

Big team congratulations to Kirsten Purdy, who ran a great race at the Honu Half Ironman in Kona on Saturday, May 31.  Kirsten finished with a 5:33 on a very difficult (HOT!) day, placing her 17/72 in her Age Group.   She has been working hard on her cycling and it has really paid off. (LEFT)

Also a huge shout out to Jill's friend, Rhae Christie-Shaw, who set a course record on the bike, finished 3rd overall, and won her AG with a smoking time of 4:46.  Rhea will be a guest speaker at the next team meeting in June at Sammamish Valley Cycle.  Here is Rhae, at mile 13.09, looking like she's just starting the run!  (RIGHT)
