1 team
  1. 1st Marissa & Daniel · #13 1h 45m

Marissa took the swim (5th out of the water!), Daniel took the bike and run. As a team they would've placed 6th against the solo Sprint field. Not bad at all.

A moment by the water

Thank you

This only works because of you.

To every racer who signed up sight-unseen, every volunteer who stood in the sun handing out water, every family member with a cowbell — thank you. You made the first Elgin Triathlon feel like a neighborhood block party with numbers on it.

  • 16 racers on the start line
  • Volunteers on the trail and at transitions
  • The Elgin Lap Pool crew
  • Everyone who yelled "GO!" at a stranger
  • You, for reading this far

Should we do this again?

Do it again in 2027?

No promises — but if enough folks want another one, we'll make it happen.
