    Smart Sport Performance Update: April 2011 PDF Print E-mail

    Spring has arrived, and with it a number of performances by Smart Sport athletes.

    Coach Besselink presented a transition clinic for the University of Texas Triathlon Club team members prior to their departure for USAT Collegiate Nationals in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. Michaela Wright was the top UT female with a time of 3:00:54, and Chris Smith was the top UT male with a time of 2:21:31. The team finished 47th overall out of 80 in only their second team appearance at Nationals. Event photos can be found here.

    In other triathlon news, Dorian Ramirez finished the hot and windy Memorial Hermann Ironman 70.3 Texas in a time of 6:34:13. She finished 33rd in her age group.

    Smart Sport athletes were also running through the hills of Arkansas and the streets of Austin. Josh Kennedy competed in the Ouachita Trail 50 Mile run. He finished an incredible 18th overall in a time of 10:24:57. This event was in preparation for Kennedy's assault on the Western States 100 Mile Endurance Run in June. Debbie Horne shattered her 5K personal best by running 24:44 at the Texas Round-Up. This was a 5:00 improvement!
