What a great day for racing at the Cohasset Triathlon! A cloudy morning turned sunny and hot by the time the athletes hit the run course. On the men’s side, Trevor Heller got into the series standings this season with a bang by ending up on the overall podium in 2nd place earning 15 bonus points on top of the 125 points for the age group win (Cohasset is a bonus point race). He was edged at the finish for the top spot by just 3 seconds! Greg Palken took second and 2011 points leader Taylor Peterson took 3rd.

The women, not to be outdone had an even closer finish if you can believe it! Sydney Michalak made her Talent ID Series debut one for the books by out dueling 2011 points leader Emily Doherty by just 1 SECOND! They were together the whole way and let it all go when it counted. Hannah Goodrick rounded out the podium for the U19 women in third.

If this is an indicator of how the rest of the series is going to be, it will be another photo finish at the finale!
