Over the last several seasons, Female Grand Master of the Year has been one of the most, if not THE most competitive MMH categorie. Our three selectees raced at a national level in 2025. Selecting a GMOY recipient will not be easy...

Minnesota has a deep history of talented junior (19 and under) triathletes who can compete head-to-head against their adult competitors. With exception of a few seasons in the late 2010s and early 2020s, when a plethora of talented young guys AND girls were racing, the Minnesota Multisport Honor (MMH) for Junior of the Year (JOY) has been a coed category with 3-4 nominations per season. Below are the 3 juniors that Bonnie and I agree earned a JOY nomination:
Adeline Althaus-Kotila, 16, Minneapolis:
In 2024, no junior girls were nominated for JOY. This year, Adeline stepped up. She claimed the overall title at Lake Rebecca and the uber-popular YWCA Women’s Tri. She also placed 4th overall/1st junior at Maple Grove Sprint, just behind established athlete Andrea Myers, and she was again 4th at Hopkins in junior course record time. The MMH Committee is super excited to see Adeline have the breakout season she did, and we hope her progression continues, particularly since triathlon is an NCAA sport on the girls’ side....

At the beginning of August, I asked Coach Anthony if he thought we could lift my 70.3 fitness to 140.6 fitness. Over the eight weeks since that conversation, I snuck in 1x80 mile ride, 2x100 mile rides, 2x3:15/3:30 trainer rides, 2 runs over 13 miles (16 and 18), 7x3k+ yard swims, an Olympic tri, and a 70.3 tri. (Plus my usual track sessions and VO2/threshold bike sessions.) I peaked at 13 hours and 5 mins.
Our conversations looked like this:
-Me: I’m still going to race Wisconsin 70.3 hard.
- Him: yes, but know there might be lingering fatigue.
-Me: are you sure there is enough time before Chatt? I like racing, not participating.
- Him: yes, you are already so fit.
-Me: ok, I trust you....

After brilliant performances at 70.3s in Boise and Madison, and some misfortune that not only kept her off the Top Step at Maple Grove Olympic, but out of the results completely, PAIGE SCHULZ needed one more great effort this year to be considered for a plethora of post-season honors, and boy, did she deliver yesterday at Ironman Chattanooga, where she cracked the women's overall Top 10, including pros, and finished 2nd in the amateur race. Her time was a super impressive 9:43:35, which we believe is a record for amateur women from MInnesota.
It was a 25:41 improvement on her prior best, a 10:09:16 at Ironman Mont Tremblant in 2019, where she placed 3rd among amateur women.
Heading into the run, Paige was leading. She was in the process of throwing down a terrific 3:24, but that would turn out to be the...
2025 MMH Season is Here!

As of last Sunday’s Fall Classic Duathlon, Minnesota’s multisport season has come to a close, which can only mean one thing… It’s now Minnesota Multisport Honors (MMH)season! In 2022, Matt and Damon gave their input. In 2023, Mav and Goose took over. In 2024, Simon and Garfunkel offered their opinions. And this year, we are excited to announce that MMH nominees, winners, and Team Minnesota members will be selected by
Bonnie and, me, Clyde.
The MMH committee’s goal has always been to showcase the strength, speed, and depth of Minnesota’s talented pool of multisport athletes. We ultimately aim to celebrate, support, grow, and enhance Minnesota’s amazing multisport community. But, as in any situation where selections are made, there can be inherent disagreement among ourselves and between members of the triathlon community for who MMH nominees and winners should be. And that’s ok.
