in less than 2-hours and within 3 days before the race, i pulled together my Dream Team, “Team ZuberIlg*” which produced an uncontested Win at Saturday’s McDonald’s Winter Triathlon (-18 Category); Lauren Aggeler (16, State Runner Up MTB Champion) was our Fat Tire Racer racing my own “Mr. Dimples 4.5” Trek and smashed the 6k Course in 21:03! Bryn Aggeler, Lauren’s younger sister at 14 (2020 3rd Place State XC Running) demolished the 2k on my own Winter Warrior Snowshoe Course in a jaw-dropping 9:31 which happens to include nearly 200′ of vert at 8,713′! Dewa Ilg (13, coming off a wire-to-wire Win at Pagosa Nordic Biathlon 4k) set the pace for the Team at a speed so fast only one Adult beat her; 12:53!
Quotes from the Racers:
Bryn: “It was amazing to get to be on a Team with two best friends and I really enjoyed the whole experience because it’s so hard and it really shows you what you are capable of!”
Lauren: “I was fortunate enough to join Bryn and Dewa’s team for this winter triathlon! This was a great opener for the season and felt like a UCI short track race. It couldn’t have been a nicer day and the high altitude training was a bonus! My legs felt great and I hope to do another race with the Dream Team soon!”
Dewa: “When You were racing for yourself, you win for yourself, or you lost for yourself. But when you’re racing for a Team? They’re all depending on you, and so that will empower you to do your best for your Team.”
