NEMS had an excellent showing at the Appleman Sprint Tri in Littleton, MA on July 18th. 2 of the 4 members that competed in the race finished on the podium for their age group. Philip Lavely had a great race getting 2nd in his age group and 11th overall. Colin Cook also had a good race and finished 3rd is age group and 8th overall. NEMS is also very proud of member Chad Quinlan who finished a very respectable 8th in his age group in his first triathlon. Way to go Chad! Congrats on becoming an official triathlete. Gary Cook also competed and did very well considering he has just started his comeback from a groin injury. Way to go everyone! Here are a few pics from the event.

Colin Cook and NEMS had a big weekend at the Black Fly Tri in Waterville Valley, NH last weekend. While competing in the Lord of the Flies (Bike TT Friday night, International distance tri on Saturday, and a Sprint Tri on Sunday), Cook took first in his age group in both the International and Sprint tri races. He also was the 7th overall male for the weekend. Here are a few shots of Colin on the podium:

Besides some rain during Saturday’s race, this was an incredible event. NEMS members Rob Charest, Myra Brennan, as well as a few NEMS prospects competed in the event and did extremely well. NEMS would like to thank Keith and EndorFun for putting on such a well organized and fun event. We are looking forward to coming back next year with even more members of the team racing.

The uniform’s have been here for a few months now, but we forgot to post some pics. They came out awesome! Here are some pics of a few members of NEMS rocking the team uniforms. Thank you so much to our sponsors, especially Suntheanine for their contributions on these.
