Time to Explain....

The MMA selection process is a highly democratic deal. Committee members study resumes and results, paying special attention to stuff like field quality, head-to-head performances, racing volume, versatility, i.e. whether athletes excelled in a single area, say, short course triathlon, or in multiple areas, i.e. short course tri, long course tri and duathlon; and speed.

It's not enough to simple win races. There is so much more to consider.

Gratitude, Pro Licenses & Kona '13....

michelleMMA winners Michelle Andres, Greg Taylor and Ruth Brennan Morrey were unable to attend the awards party last Saturday. Michelle, who has a "thing" for naked cowboys (photo L), was hunting deer with her husband and their 10-12 sons while simultaneously celebrating her mom's 70th birthday; Greg was called into work doing important doctor stuff and Ruther was in England, probably drinking a few pints of bitter and eating bangers and mash. They emailed their acceptance comments. Good stuff!

From MICHELLE ANDRES (2012 Performance of the Year - Amateur CR @ Ironman Wisconsin)

Wow! Super neat:). Thanks!!

IMoo was a great day. Almost everything came together for me, but I'm still waiting for that swim thing to click. .

The support I received before the race, the day of the race, and after the race from the Tri community was very heart warming and I appreciated it so much.

I'm honored to be part of an amazing group of athletes and all around nice people! ...
