Best of Cleveland

The Spin-Second Sole Team is more than the group of racers who work so hard to promote multisport racing in Ohio. The team starts with our sponsors, who believe in our mission and want to support the active and healthy lifestyle that all triathletes live. We choose our sponsors carefully– they’re people who care about the community, care about health and fitness, and genuinely believe that supporting multisport racing is a good thing to do. We couldn’t agree more.

And now there’s a chance to take one minute and give back a little bit. Please take a second–really, just a second– and click on the links below to vote for our sponsors in the Best of Cleveland awards. We know they’re the best; help spread the word. Thanks.

“Rob Thompson” is how you say “Really Fast” in Austrailian

This kid is on fire.

On Saturday, Rob shows up to the Nature’s Bin 5k, and takes 7th of 200. He went under 18:00 for the first time in his life, winning his age group and impressing a lot of people.

On Sunday, Rob shows up to the Leroy Township Cyclocross. This is his first cross race. Figuring the B race was a good place for a rookie, he lines up and promptly flats, which is fortunate for the rest of the field, because he then starts the A race, and takes 12th. He went five seconds per lap faster than the winner of the B race, and he did it for two more laps. Sandbagger.

Oh, and there were other people who raced this weekend too. None of them happened to have had such a great weekend, so all of our results are below the fold.
