July held plenty of training and racing for Northeast Multisport members!
The month kicked off with a fun run on July 1st, the Millennium Red, White, and Brews Beer Relay. Taking place at the New Hampshire Motor Speedway in Loudon, the event featured relay teams of 4 people racing 1 mile each after drinking a can of beer (or soda)! A dozen team members enjoyed the festive atmosphere.

On July 10th, 22 NEMS members raced the Olympic distance triathlon at Mass State in Winchendon, Massachusetts. The course was packed with familiar faces, and the finish line was full of high fives. Many great performances on the course and even a beer tent to celebrate with teammates at the end of a good race!
