Tsunamis Swim/Bike/Run Their Way to Success!
PCST Swimmers Compete in the Florida Kids Ironman Triathlon!
One day after about 2800 people competed in the Florida Ironman (140.6 mile) race, Frank Brown Park was flooded with young aspiring athletes who wanted to strut their own abilities as a swimmer, cyclist and runner. Around 130 kids competed from the ages of 15 and younger, including many PCST swimmers who had great races. Here are some of the top results from our current swimmers who should be very proud of themselves because they represented PCST well!
A special congratulations also go out to Michael Ashley and Reis Gordon who both won their age groups and proved they were the best triathletes around! Way to go you two! I would also like to congratulate the large group of former PCST swimmers (either from year-round or Summer Splashes) who competed and raced really well!

CATCH THE WAVE!
