The FingerLakes Triathlon takes place on Sunday, September 19, with the swim start in Canandaigua Lake.
In the sprint race (.5mile swim, 13 mile bike, 5k run) Mike "Macho Man" Weinpress takes on Eileen "Petite Princess" Weinpress. The bookies are giving EPPW the swim and bike legs, meaning Macho Man has a scant 3 miles to chase her down and keep his honor. This race may be decided in the transitions. If Macho Man can stay away from eating a sub between the bike and run he may pull off a victory.
The Olympic distance (1500m swim, 22.5m bike, 10k run) has Jan "Queenie" McCullough versus Mike "Muffin Top" McCullough. Though Queenie is a much better swimmer, the wetsuit seems to negate her speed advantage. Swim is a tie. Bike will be close, the hill out of Rushville may decide this one, then Muffin Top has to hang on during the run. Transitions, again, could be the ultimate victory decider. Will Muffin Top have to wrestle an octopus getting out of his wetsuit? Let's hope no one has to see that show!
