I was proud to represent Team ER at the Springfield Ohio Games race today. I completed my first Olympic Triathlon!
They had a good turn out of participants. The swim was in the lake at Buck Creek State park (a little windy, but we all pushed through), biking country roads through Springfield, OH with rolling hills and police at every intersection to let us keep rolling, and an out and back run on a damn overlooking the lake. I would recommend it to other team members!

Race Review By Scott Orlando:

This was my 6th time competing in the Great Island Adventure Triathlon. (5K kayak, 15 mile bike, and 5K run).   The race was last offered in 2018 so I was happy to see it back for 2021.

I set a race PR finishing in 1:50:12 taking 6th place overall and 3rd in my age division. 5 of the top 7 finishers were in my age division.

I fell behind early in the field of super fast kayakers. I made up a little time on the bike passing a few people on the two lap course. The magic really happened on the run. I dropped a 7:15 first mile and started passing other racers. I completed the run in 22:50 with average pace of 7:22 per mile.  The race was well organized as it usually has been in the past.  Racers received long sleeve shirts and plenty of post race food for refueling.   My race packet included probably the most unique piece of race swag I have ever received which was a hand made key chain made our of authentic chain mail armor provided by one of the sponsors.
