This weekend was nothing short of epic. It seemed that every time we turned around, our EDGE Athletes were dominating their races, chasing their dreams, kicking ass and taking names. We wanted to try and capture some of the CRAZYGOOD performances….so sit down, buckle up (grab a cup of coffee) and read on!
Mag Mile Half Marathon
Becca earned herself a big ‘ole PR on her BIRTHDAY (1:28 on her 28th!)
Cameron nailed his 13.1 with a fifth place OVERALL finish and made a super solid deposit heading into the Chicago Marathon
Big Shoulders
Jeff completed his first open water 5K and came out smiling (yep you read that right – 3.1 miles of swimming!)
Volition Half Marathon
John obliterated his race goals and snagged a GIANT PR (to match the giant PR mug, naturally)
RIO Paratriathlon
Pretty sure you’ve heard by now but we have not ONE but TWO PARALYMPIC MEDALS in the house!! Hailey and Melissa, we are beyond proud of you. We were screaming and cheering and crying from Chicago. Cannot WAIT for you to come home to celebrate!
Chicago Cross Cup
The CX season kicked off at Caldwell Woods yesterday. And guess who took home the leader jersey? Yep, that’s Daphne and her Chicago Cuttin Crew posse ruling the roost!
And last but not least…one of our favorite all time races...
Ironman Wisconsin
Jill and Andrew nailed their first full Ironmans, finish strong down the chute. There is simply no better day than your first IM!
Luke was Mr. Speedy of the day – his legs showed up to race, and race he did!
Brian found the IMOO chute for a second time, earning every step of his 140.6 journey!
Ashleigh ran down the chute for the FOURTH time. This girl is a machine!
Katie came back stronger, fitter and f*&ing fiercer than ever to FINISH what she started. SO proud of her as she tackled this goal
Pat not only slayed the swim and bike courses, but this Police Officer then went on to complete the run in FULL uniform in honor of 9/11, crossing the finish line with an American flag.
* Goosebumps *
To everyone who raced their hearts out, THANK YOU for showing us what it means to chase dreams, cross finish lines and come back for more! #EDGEfamily
