Mandy McLane and Kaleb VanOrt raced their way to overall victories Sept. 25 at the 2010 USA Triathlon Age Group National Championship as more than 1,300 athletes chased national titles in Tuscaloosa, Ala.
Also this year’s USAT duathlon national champion, VanOrt (Mishawaka, Ind.) picked up his second overall title of 2010 in 1 hour, 52 minutes, 16 seconds – a full 3 minutes ahead of the day’s No. 2 finisher, masters champion Doug Clark (Morristown, N.J.), who logged a time of 1:55:54 on the Olympic-distance course (1.5-kilometer swim, 40-kilometer bike, 10-kilometer run). VanOrt earned the 25-29 title, while Clark topped the 40-44 age group.
“Last couple of tris … I’ve been hitting the bike hard, and then I’ve been coming off the bike pretty wobbly legged. And then today was a little bit calm on the bike, so I felt pretty good coming out on the run,” said VanOrt, who clocked a 10k run split of 31:59 and displayed an improved swim. The Notre Dame product is a member of the USAT Collegiate Recruitment Program, which produced a number of top performances on the day.
Also the female 30-34 age group champion, McLane (Windermere, Fla.) posted a mark of 2:09:14 to claim the overall female title by 7 seconds over 30-34 runner-up Cindi Bannink (Madison, Wis.) “(Winning) was definitely the goal for this year, especially after last year where I was expecting to have a win or a top-three finish and ended up finishing 10th because I had a flat,” said McLane, who has aspirations of a professional career.
Alicia Parr (Durham, N.C.) captured the female masters title in 2:10:12, while Karen McKeachie (Ann Arbor, Mich.) and Steven Smith (Granger, Ind.) brought home the grand masters wins in 2:28:47 and 2:20:01, respectively.
In addition to the bragging rights of claiming an age group national title, the top finishers also earned coveted spots to represent the U.S. at the 2011 ITU World Championships in Beijing, China, on Sept. 10-11, 2011. The top 18 finishers (rolling down to 25th place) in each age group in both the Olympic-distance and sprint events in Tuscaloosa will qualify for a Team USA slot.
JUNE, PARISH CAP WEEKEND WITH SPRINT TITLES
Up-and-coming triathletes Katie June and Patrick Parish closed an exciting weekend of multisport action by claiming overall victories Sept. 26 at the 2010 USA Triathlon Sprint National Championship in Tuscaloosa, Ala.
The only competitor to break the 1-hour mark, Parish (Circle Pines, Minn.), 25, sprinted across the line nearly 2 minutes ahead of the day’s No. 2 finisher with a time of 59 minutes, 6 seconds on the 750m swim, 20k bike and 5k run course.
The 17-year-old June (Roswell, Ga.) was the first female finisher of the day and a full minute faster than her closest competitor with a time of 1:06:44.
