CADENCE KONA CHALLENGE WINNERS DECLARED BY TRIATHLETE READERS' POLL!Since the summer of 2007 it's been quite a trip! From narrowing down thousands of applicants to a pool of the Top 100, to an exciting and emotional weekend of testing, and finally to the selection of the 6 CKC semifinalists, it's been an incredible journey. The six semifinalists showed extreme perseverance and dedication to the sport of triathlon. Not only did they include us on their personal highs and lows as they challenged themselves psychologically and physiologically, they took us along as they trained and raced to become better athletes. All of us at Cadence have the greatest respect for the CKC finalists who took up the challenge, faced their insecurities, overcame their weaknesses, and built upon their strengths during these last seven months. In our opinion, you're all winners!

Now the final results are in and Triathlete magazine has notified us of the outcome. The two CKC athletes with the largest number of votes are James Pearson and Mary Lou Hoffman! CONGRATULATIONS JAMES AND MARY LOU!!!

Stay tuned for more information and to follow the training, trials, and tribulations of James and Mary Lou as they prepare for IronMan Lake Placid with the goal of qualifying for Kona!Lastly, we again encourage all of you to support the sponsors who helped make the Cadence Kona Challenge such an amazing event.
