Team Hendryx Athletes Score Big at Tri Miami

Team Hendryx had two athletes at the Tri Miami race this weekend on Key Biscayne and both performed well.

Stephanie O who did her first ever triathlon last May, and was doing her second Olympic Distance race ever. Stephanie was able to overcome an accident earlier in the week to show up big on the course. She took 17 minutes of her only other Olympic distance race, and she improved in all events - 7 minutes on the swim, 5 minutes on the bike and 6 minutes on the run.

Awesome job by Stephanie

Rene M who is coming off a lengthy rehab from a injured achilles was racing for the first time in over 7 months. Rene hopped in the duathlon to get in some training miles and see how her rehab was going. Evidently it is progressing nicely as Rene was able to conquer the course in 2:11:46 - she ran the first mile in 6:57, finished the 25 mile bike in 1:14:16, and the last 10k in 47:46 - she was 2:30 ahead of her competition.

Awesome job Rene'
