An incredible weekend for Team RTB at Ironman 70.3 Tri-Cities! Congratulations to all 40+ of our athletes who raced, and a big thank you to everyone who cheered us on at the event and back home. It was awesome to have so many people comment on what a strong presence we had at the race.

Team RTB walked away with an outstanding 2nd place finish in the Tri Club standings, climbing 3 spots from last year's 5th place finish. 👏

5 individual athletes and 2 relay teams earned spots on the podium, with 3 of those athletes accepting qualifying slots to the Ironman 70.3 World Championship in 2027. 🔥

For several athletes, this was their first ever 70.3! For others, it was a PR, a breakthrough, a comeback, or simply another fun challenge. Regardless, we're SO PROUD to call you all our teammates, and look forward to continue raising the bar together.

We'd like to share a big THANK YOU to everyone who donated to our Swim Across America fundraiser. 🙏❤️ With your support, our team has raised over $5,100 so far, directly funding innovative cancer research at Fred Hutch Cancer Center. 

We're incredibly proud of our athletes who swam on Saturday in honor of family, friends, and teammates whose lives have been touched by cancer in one way or another – this event truly embodied all things strength, love, and inspiration. 

Our goal next year is double. Are you in?

The calm before the storm at Open Water Wednesday last night (literally!) ⛈️

We were fortunate to get through another great workout with lots of inspiring breakthroughs before some unexpected thunder and lightning rolled in. Big thanks to our safety crew for making sure everyone got out of the water safely at the end there!

Same time next week - see you there!
