Vinnie Monseau our local tri hero, I have mentioned before and Matt met him in Morgantown, or at least spoke with him briefly. Well he went sub two hours in a Olympic Tri in St. Petersburg, Fl. I guess over 5,000 athletes. He was flying. He was the 6th place amateur and 31st overall. He lost out being the fastest amateur bike by 17 seconds. He was going 25.7 MPH. The mom of a little girl who plays baseball with Levi is good friends with Vinnie and his wife. She told me Vinnie got a new bike over the winter and was hoping to go near 26 MPH. I guess he has done it.
St. Anthony Triathlon results
He is under the Elite Amateur section just below the Pro's. 35:10 Run for a 10k if you were wondering. His swim was not as impressive only 23:54, I think he was disappointed with this. The fastest amateur swimmer was Adam Weber from Lebanon, PA 18:31. WOW!

Before Chaz left he was saying how this event had some big names attending. I guess Vinnie M is one of them!! Wow.
I'm curious, are you going to send him an email to point out how he's losing positions because of his weak swim? ;-)

33rd Swim 1:36 pace..... Hey I was 1:38 pace last weekend!! (don't believe it the distance was wrong)
