The Thunder Bay Thunderbolt
[ the following was written by Dave's son Mark ]
Merrrrrmp! The horn goes off, the triathletes are splashing through the water. Oh, I’m just talking about Dave Reckzin’s first triathlon in 8 years. He lost 91 pounds to get here.
It was very busy at the start with 118 individuals and 43 teams. They started male 5min before the women and teams. He came out of his 1k swim 18 min later.
His transition was very fast. Dave came back 1hr, 29 sec later from his 32k bike ride. His second transition was even faster than his first.
His run was 8.4k and it took him 42min 05sec. It took him 2hrs 34sec to finish. He came in 23rd overall and 3rd in his age group.
