"Tweet your way onto triathlon's first mustache relay"
By Devon Palmer
Thinking of calling it a year? Hold on. You have an opportunity to make history. I, Devon Palmer professional triathlete and proud mustache owner, am looking to build a mustachioed relay team for the upcoming St Croix Olympic race in Hudson on September 1st. Who do I want on my team? You. I'll do the biking and you can swim or run.
What do you have to do to make the team?

Stuff - Tomorrow we are posting stories on the Minnesota men and women who will racing at AG Nationals next weekend, and how we think some of them will fare.
Guess, what? We're predicting that at least one of the two overall National champions will be a Loon Stater. We also suspect there will be a few AG NCs, as well.
The 3rd new post of the day will be Rand Middleton's totally good coverage of the 9th annual Green Lake Triathlon.
FYI, Sue Rubens (photo L) claimed the overall masters title at Sunday's Rev 3-Wisconsin Dells Half IM, finishing 4th overall among the amateur women. Way to rock it, Sue!

Athlete Mini-Bio - Jordan Buth is a Triathlete. Jordan Buth is also a hockey player, Pearl Jam fanatic, and die hard cat lover. A native of Blaine, MN he grew up playing the signature sport of the upper Midwest like most other suburban kids, at the local arena in front of hundreds of families that comprise the tightly knit community that is B.Y.H.A.
Fast forward two decades and Jordan still speaks very fondly of his days on the ice both as a player and as a minor pro Referee
