Raw Revolution's "Top Dogs" decided and other news

Today was the conclusion of the "Top Dog" Winter Time Trial Competition sponsored by Raw Revolution. Over 50 riders participated in different categories from January 1st - February 28th. The competition was held on the 10k CompuTrainer Indoor Time Trial Course.

In a hotly contested Men's Time Category, Lucas M. of Snapple Triathlon Team saved his best for last, shaving 20" off of his previous performance, and 2" off his personal best to unseat Matt D. of NCVC as "Top Dog" for the Winter Season with a time of 14:41.17. This is the new Speed Shop record.
In the Men's w/kg category strong man, Jim J., of ABRT had an impressive 4.623 w/kg grip on the top spot until Lucas managed to raise his game not only with time, but also with power, to finish with a 4.830 w/kg! Jim J. did secure his "Top Dog" position in the 40+ Men's Category with a time of 15:28.5 but not without a hard charge from Kevin C. only 10" behind. The Men's 50+ Category was HOT! Only 7" separated the top 3 riders. Terry H. made the one hour trek to the Speed Shop to give it go. He finished in 16:19.6 just missing 2nd place by 1" to Don F. of AVC . Our very own, John "Lumpy" O. also representing AVC, showed us there is a time trial in those legs after all, and topped the others with a 16:12.4. Nicely done.
Not only can he time trial, Lumpy can duct tape Don's running shoes to his pedals for the workout! Do not try this at home!!
On the ladies side, Super fast Michele T. of the Frederick Triathlon Club, remained "Top Dog" in the Women's Time Category AND added the Women's 40+ Category to her list of top podium finishes with a very impressive time of 17:09.04. A new face on top of the Women's w/kg category was Paula R. She raised her game in a big way this winter and landed a 3.514 w/kg. Strong and steady Vicki B. placed "Top Dog" in the Women's 50+ category with a hard charged 19:22.8. Way to go ladies!
This was a fantasic warm up for the upcoming:
"Kelley Acres" Speed Shop was invited to participate in this event with three other CompuTrainer Centers in the region. All the info you need is on the website. If you know anyone that may want to try out their early season fitness, pass on the link.
