MAY 2017 MINNESOTA ATHLETES OF THE MONTH

Better late than never, right?

We would have posted this sooner but we've been hoping to find an AOM sponsor, a company that can provide, say, products, gift cards or discounts  to the winners. If there are any companies out there, or maybe even races that can give out entries, please contact us, okay?

May is the first month with a full schedule of multisport races, thus we kick off our AOMs with May. To be eligible, athletes must have turned in at least TWO outstanding performances during the designated time period.

MAY ATHLETES OF THE MONTH - WADE CRUSER & DANI VSETECKA

- Wade set a course record at Cinco Du Mayo Long Course and beat a very deep field which included two highly-credentialed pros at Apple. Dani also won two...

races, starting with the Falls Du. Her other win--Apple--featured a du field that may have been the deepest du of the season thus far, one that rivaled last weekend's Du Nationals in Bend, Oregon.

HM - Brian Sames, Kris Spoth, Diane Hankee.

MAY MASTERS OF THE MONTH - ROB MADGWICK & DIANE HANKEE

- Madgwick, 52 (photo L), placed 2nd overall at Cinco Sprint, 6th at Oakdale and 15th at Apple, winning his AG in each case. Hankee, 40 (photo R), won the super competitive Gear West Du, placed 3rd at Apple (1st Master) behind Vsetecka and Grinaker, and 5th (1st Master) at Flordia 70.3.

- HM- Andrea Myers

MAY PERFORMANCES OF THE MONTH - WADE CRUSER (Victory at Apple) & DANI VSETECKA (Victory at Apple)
