A 6.2-mile run seems like a daunting task for some. Tack on a .93-mile swim and 24.8-mile bike race before that, and it’s a normal race day for the Triathlon Club.

“This team is a great environment for athletes of all abilities, from the seasoned triathlete to total beginner,” President Rachel Taylor said. “Being on this team means you always have a training partner to do a workout with, and more importantly you have a great group of friends who eventually become like a family.”

Racing isn’t everything for the Triathlon Club. For some, it is a great way to make longtime friends.
