The New Jersey State Triathlon

The New Jersey State Triathlon is the premiere and largest triathlon in the State. It was held this past weekend in the Mercer County area. The triathlon consists
of a swim in Mercer Lake followed by the bike race through West Windsor Township. The run is along the water on paved trails and shaded wood areas to an unforgettable 200 yard dash to finish. The race attracts Pro’s, Elite and age group triathletes both nationally and internationally and yes our own Isobel DeRusha from the NT Callaway Real Estate Marketing Department.

This year it took place on two days offering an entire weekend of triathlon and festival-style activities. The sprint distance was on July 24th and the Olympic distance was on July 25th. Isobel participated in the Olympic distance as part of a relay team with 2 other women, where she did the swim portion of the race. Their team came in first for the Olympic Triathlon Relay race.

Congratulations to Isobel and her teammates for a fantastic job!

    Wow, Isobel! Well done.
    People don’t realize it, but New Jersey is a great place to find different sporting events to enjoy on a competitive level.
    I know in this triathlon you were competing against an amazing number of other teams and individuals. Well done.
