LIFE TIME FITNESS INDOOR TRIS - Here's a few more capsules from January 8:

MAPLE GROVE - Forty-eight finishers, 31 of whom were women. Elizabeth Zimmer broke the women's race open during the pedestrian phase, turning a very close competition into a runaway. Her closest challenger was Diane Kieckhefer. Diane is a Cubs fan who has a black lab and two handsome sons. We don't know anything about Elizabeth Zimmer, but wonder if she is related to the Vikings' head coach.

The fastest guy at Maple Grove was Michael Lahm. He's a graduate of North Carolina State. He likes Mumford & Sons (Who doesn't?) and The Walking Dead. Sometimes he pretends to play guitar (photo).  RESULTS  ...

ST. LOUIS PARK - With 71 finishers, this event is one of the larger indoor tris in our state.  The fastest man was Dane Washenberger. The fastest woman was Kimberly Hayden. Dane is an Actuarial Analyst from Sioux Falls, South Dakota. He listens to Ed Sheeran and Imagine Dragons, likes the Harry Potter movies and the TV show, "Suits," which we haven't seen but hear is pretty good.

As for Kimberly, we think she is into martial arts, but we're not sure. RESULTS
