Congratulations to everyone who raced today at the Chicago Triathlon. We had a great time cheering you on, and you do an amazing job on a super windy day in the windy city!
The swim looked tough today!
The One and Only Erik "Bird" Walter...check out the muscle striation on those calves.
Katie did the triple...crazy!!
Nothing like teammates running together, Randy had to drop the hammer on Dave here I guess.
Our next event will be at Ironman Wisconsin in two weeks at Ironman Wisconsin. We will once again take the hill on the top of Old Sauk by storm to cheer on our Endure It athletes (and other people as well I suppose). We will be out on the bike course and directions to get there are below. Please let us know if you plan on joining us so that we can touch base just in case you get lost. Email us at ricklapinski@hotmail.com
Directions to our location are here:
- I-88 W toward Aurora
- Take the exit onto I-39 N/US-51 N toward Rockford
- Keep right at the fork, follow signs for I-39 N/US-20 E/Wisconsin-Belvidere Rockford and merge onto I-39 N/US-20 E
- Continue to follow I-39 N
- Keep left at the fork, follow signs for Interstate 90 W/Interstate 39 N and merge onto I-39 N/I-90 W
- Take exit 142A on the left to merge onto US-12 W/US-18 W toward Madison
- Take exit 251A toward Spring Green/La Crosse
- Turn right onto US-14 W/University Ave
- Continue to follow US-14 W
- Turn left onto Cleveland Rd
- Cleveland dead ends at the top of a monster hill. Park anywhere along that hill, there will be a lot of other people parking there as well. After you park walk to the top of the hill and take a right on Old Sauk Pass (you can only go right or left). You’ll walk to the top of the hill where the Endure It Tent will be set up.
