Trail Shop Ski Marathon




Thanks for Cookie MacKilt putting us on to this one. We were aware that a couple of guys had gone north for this event, but there were more triathletes at the ski marathon than at Goffs. Here are a few of the pics from Cookie MacKilt's photo album from the event on Facebook;

Mark Cookie Monster Campbell did, in fact, win. Chapeau Mark


Shawn Amirault, IKON 2009 Fair Play Award winner was 2nd


Mens' podium (marathon)

Paul Newton and Gerrad Lewin (below) were also in the event


Darlene Chapman won the ladies.


In the half, Geoff Bennett (far right) was 2nd overall


Jason Murphy, 2009 IKON Official of the Year Finalist, was in the half as well (seen here mucking about in the waxing hut),


as was Ron MacDougall.

Geoff's Son, Luke Bennett (below left) cleaned up in the 7K; all the kids he beat, bar one, were older than he was: way to go Luke!


Amy Gough (below right) was 2nd in the 7K


We saw a photo of Ingonish RD Dan Murray, but we didn't see his name in the results but Dan has just had a busy time with the Canada Games cross country ski, so he was probable due a break.


To add to Dan's workload he was recently interviewed for Triathlon Magazine Canada as we understand Ingonish was also recently profiled in Triathlon Magazine Canada (and Brooke Brown got a name-check for her Cozumel result). We say "we understand" because, to be honest, the TA didn't get past the picture of Miranda Carfrae on p11!

Thanks to Ron and Cookie for the photos.
