The USAT Multisport National Festival brought more than National Championships. It provided an opportunity to race in a variety of events from duathlon to mixed relays to time trials and even a water slide start!

Kinley raced back to back days in the Super Sprint Time Trial and the Super Sprint Tri Slide with an AG win both days! She was fierce going head to head with the adults as the first athlete in the water on the SS Time Trial. She took 2 minutes off her time the next day at the SS Tri Slide.

JoAnn and Jay were part of a mixed relay taking 10th Overall and 3rd in their combined AG.

Natalie and Kathy made a big splash bringing the fun on the Super Sprint Tri Slide.

Struggling with recovering from an injury? Check out Mike Limerick blog on "Learning How to Race Again".

By: Mike Limerick Around 2020, I started noticing pain in my right arm. It would run from my shoulder blade down into my hand. It came and went, so I didn’t think much of it at first. I figured it was posture, overuse, or something I could manage. So I did what most athletes do. I...
