Approximately a dozen triathlon observers--race directors, coaches, writers & USAT VP Tim Yount, who is a totally cool guy!--voted last week for the 2011 USAT Athlete of the Year winners and Honorable Mentions. The voting was done privately, thus only one or two of the voters currently know the results. Awards will be presented at the Endurance LIVE Gala in Los Angeles on March 10.

While the official honorees will be announced here (and elsewhere) in the next week or so, we has chosen to share our selections here. (MTN Partner Jerry MacNeil has been a voting member of the USAT AOY Selection Committee for more than a decade.)

Here's our tri picks:...

MALE ATHLETE OF THE YEAR - Adam Webber, 31, Denver, PA
