Southwest Championship Series
The 2005 season is over for the world’s
oldest Triathon and Duathlon
series. Socorro athletes can
be proud this year, there are 4 champions in our
midst. Ephraim Ford so
dominated his age group with 69.75 points that none dared to challenge
him. Julie Ford took second
in her age group with 72.25 points, although there is no shame to
finishing second to Shanna Armstrong. Rheda
Brown finished second of the Athena category with 49 points. Christian Krueger took third in
the Elite category with 51.125 points (7 races). Matt Perini was pushed into fourth
in his age group with 52.375 points in just the last few races.
Matt’s age group was tough, with a total of 8 qualifiers with 8 or
more races, more than any other group. Robert Abernathy qualified in the
same group, finishing 8th with 37.125 points. (Yes, I know I was last, you don’t have to point it out.
And, yes, I did have the
lowest point total of any 8 race qualifier, how clever of you to notice.) Final results are here.
Awards are given out for the top three finishers in all categories and
here will be a banquet for the champions on the evening of Dec 10 (same
day as the Polar Bear Triathlon at WSMR) in the Fort Bliss
Officer’s Club in El Paso,
TX. Details should be available later
this month.
2005 Fat Tire Fiesta
The annual off-road bicycle festival was held over the weekend of
September 16-18. There were a
total of 62 participants, exceeding expectations. Many positive comments about the
rides with high expectations for next year. The committee is already working
on the new schedule. And the
M Mountain ride will be back, with (we can only hope) a slightly easier
approach to the peak
