2011 TOUGH KIDS AQUATHON
(22 May 2011)
The first race of the two-race TOUGH KIDS Multi-sport series took place at Matapang Beach in Tumon. The swim/run Aquathon couldn't have had better conditions as the forecast thunderstorms were no where in sight. Instead, bright, sunny skies with a placid Tumon Bay made for great race setting.

TOP "NO FRILLS"
DUATHLON
(17 April 2011)When news was received that a swim permit could not be obtained for Sunday's triathlon, the GTF board moved quickly to modify the event format and fifty-five athletes registered for the RUN-BIKE-RUN Duathlon. Two 5Ks sandwiched
the athlete's choice of a 20K or 40K bike ride. For 5 of the competitors,
this was their first GTF event, and with any luck, we have them hooked..

Competing with the 20K bike distance, Brandon Fell took 1st in Men's Overall
with a 16:56 Run, 35:28 Bike and 18:22 Run split for a total time of 1:10:46. He was followed by relative newbie to the sport - Gabe Lombard, who crossed the line in 1:19:27. In third place, Steve Blanton with a 1:21:11 finishing time.
