May Race Report: RocketChix Triathlon

An article by konafitness    No Comments

Team Steel MagNOLAs won fourth place this weekend in the RocketChix all women triathlon in Baton Rouge!  Penny Montgomery (wearing Erika Levandoske’s little bitty swimsuit!) started us off with a fabulous swim handing off the chip to Erika, our speedy bicyclist, who placed FIRST of all the cyclists in the relay!  On to Angele, who I MUST SAY has improved the most on her run!  Angele was coming out of transition next to Captain Eve and took off like a speeding bullet!  She came in 6th runner (out of 15) to help place the team in fourth!  Next July this team will take first place I know.  Look out, Exerfit, Divachicks, and FITBIRDS (I mean, really?  What kind of name is THAT?) you have a tough fight next time I guarantee!

I also want to give a shout out to Darlene Baldwin for her third place finish and Eve Kazik’s second place finish. Other MagNOLAS on the route were Tina Marquardt, and Georgia Thomas showing their colors!  Special congratulations to Courtney Rowan on her first triathlon. We love her style in transition!!
