Special Thanks
This event depends on our fantastic sponsors and volunteers. Without either we would not be able to put on such a great race. Our generous sponsors are listed below and deserve our gratitude.
Carrabbas will again provide their special food for the post-race party that you will not want to miss. The past two years Carrabbas has generously provided an outstanding meal that our triathletes and volunteers couldn’t stop complimenting. The party will also highlight sandwiches from Subway and other refreshments including Bud Light along with music, white sands and the Gulf of Mexico in the background. You won’t want to miss the fantastic celebration. Tickets will be available for family and friends.
Competing against 900 triathletes, Fleishman, a member of the USA triathlon team and former Olympic team alternate, finished the 600-yard swim, 18-mile bike ride and 3.1-mile run in 1:06.14. It was his seventh SRITRI victory in 12 appearances.

Today, Lindsey Ellis finished the Santa Rosa Island Triathlon despite having Cerebral Palsy. She has done it before with her Aunt, Wendy Ellis. This year as Wendy got ready to take Lindsey out in the raft, she cut her foot badly and her friend Carmen jumped into action to take Wendy’s place. See one of our earlier posts that describes how team Because They Can, does this event.
