We were pleased to share the morning with nearly 100 participants in the 20th Emily Schindler Memorial Triathlon. Two participants from the 1st triathlon in 2007 were racing again today! We are grateful for everyone’s enthusiasm and embracing Emily’s energy and spirit at the event. Emily placed her friendships first and focused on having her “best time” rather than getting her “best time”.
Over the years we have learned a lot as 1,532 people have participated with a total of 2,353 registrations. It is wonderful to see so many familiar smiling faces ready to Swim, Bike, and Run! Thank you for returning and bringing your family and friends along.
Including this year’s event, 99 triathletes have registered for the triathlon more 4 times. Our youngest triathlete was 8 years old and our golden triathlete at 78 years! Truly FLAMAZING!
The results for this year’s triathlon have been attached to this email and are posted on the triathlon website. Please note, the time for the bike leg was NOT included in anyone’s overall final time. The final time DOES include the swim time, run time, and the transition times for the swim to the bike and the bike to the run. The distance for the run is approximately 2.8 miles.
We would like to thank the 25+ volunteers that it takes to make the triathlon run smoothly. Your contribution is greatly appreciated. We would also like to extend a very special thank you to Mr. & Mrs. Schindler for your tireless enthusiasm and preservation of Emily’s passion for not only helping others but more importantly celebrating their accomplishments. Thank you both!
A winner for the 50/50 has been contacted. Thank you to all who purchased a ticket. An additional $114.50 will be added to the scholarship fund!
We hope everyone enjoyed today’s event. If you have any comments or suggestions for ways, we can improve the triathlon please reply to this email. The Flamingo will be back in Spring 2027!!
Thank you,
David Ensor
