The first-year race in southeast Iowa was a big hit with athletes and had over 200 finishers on Saturday, Aug. 2. Adam, a Muscatine police officer, gives details on the family-friendly event at Deep Lakes Park and Riverside Park. The sprint triathlon attracted more than a dozen professionals who chased a $5,000 top prize on both the men's and women's sides. Adam talks about a key local sponsorship with that helped kickstart the event and where this event could be headed in coming years under his "Go big or go home" philosophy. He also tells of some tips he learned from other triathlons, including the now-departed Quad Cities Triathlon.
