Dec. 11, 2004 - Lakewood's Matthew Segur, and Sunny Gilbert of Boulder took home victories in an unusually warm Chilly Cheeks duathlon, sponsored by Elite Tax Service, of Denver. With high temperatures for the day hitting near 70 degrees, and upper 50's when the race started, many competitors chose to wear shorts and short sleeves for the mid-December event.
The race started with a mass-start 4 mile run over roads and trails in Denver's Cherry Creek State Park. A group of almost 10 men formed the early lead group, passing the mile in 5:21. The pack began to string out as the leaders hit the trail portion of the race, and Golden's Rob Gilbert took control of the race, extending his lead to over 30 seconds as he entered transition.
The lead shuffled on the 10.8 mile bike leg, with Segur, a regular on the Colorado duathlon circuit, taking over first place to record his first Chilly Cheeks victory. Just nine seconds back, Andy Palmer of Centennial grabbed second in a tight race that saw the top-5 men finish within a span of less than a minute.
For Sunny Gilbert, the 2004 USAT Overall Age-Group Triathlon National Champion, the finish was far less dramatic as she dipped under the women's course record by nearly a minute to win in 59:25. Martha Meyer (41), of Littleton took second in 1:02:39.
In the Fat Tire division, 5430 Triathlon race director Barry Siff (49), rode his mountain bike to victory, placing 31st overall in the field of nearly 150 racers. Nicole Davis, of Jamestown, took home the women's Fat Tire win with a time of 1:09:42.
Random finishing places were selected immediately after the race start, and raffle prizes including free tax returns from our title sponsor Elite Tax Service, as well as prizes from Hammer Nutrition, Koobi, Dondero Chiropractic, Suunto, and Park were awarded to those finishers as they crossed the line.
The Elite Tax Service Chilly Cheeks Duathlon Series continues on January 16th with an exciting Run-Bike-Run-Bike format, and concludes on February 6th with a 10 Mile Bike-4 Mile Run event.
