Kicking off Super Sunday with an Indoor Tri

Super Sunday had a whole new meaning for the 33 athletes who competed at the JackRabbit Indoor Tri on February 1st. Racers traveled to the JCC on the Upper West Side for the early morning competition. On the womens' side, Megan Clarke swam an impressive 27 laps, to oulast second place finisher Rina Robinson. Stephanie Chamberlain rounded out the top three, with an impressive 16 mile performance on the bike.

The race was equally close on the mens' side. Bouker Pool outpaced JackRabbit's own Terry Moore, by just two laps in the pool and .65 miles on the bike, to claim the top spot on the podium. Marc Perez clocked the best bike split of the race, with 20.26 miles, to finish in third place.

The series race will be held on February 22 at the Prospect Park YMCA, in Park Slope Brooklyn. This will be the final qualifying race before the series championships at Asphalt Green on March 15th.
