Nick Tarasovic (Husband of Pat Tarasovic, Director of
the Volunteer Center at United Way) is a big, compassionate guy - well,
maybe not quite as big, but still as compassionate - since he started
training to be a tri-athlete. He's now
raised his sites on completing the
Revolutiion3 Cedar
Point event in Sandusky, Ohio on September 12, 2010. All he will have to do is swim
2.4 miles, ride a bike
for 112 miles and run 26.2 more miles!
That takes dedication and motivation, and when you mix that with Nick's compassion and community spirit, you come up with the ingredients for the Tri-Challenge. That's Tri as in Try! Nick's never done a Triathlon like this before, but he is certainly going to Tri to complete this one. In order to keep him motivated, we've set up the Tri-Challenge, and we're asking you to be part of Nick's support team by really motivating him to train hard and support the community at the same time.
Members of Nick's support team:
| Carol Pendagast Joseph Nawrocki Patrick Lane James Buzak Diane Stroman Ben Trabka Dave Rabinove Jay Johnson |
Joyce Barcley Christine Glenn Ralph Archer Laurel Vicidomino Colleen Spooner Kathleen Lane Susan Malloy Nicholas Tarasovic |
Allen Tarasovic Marilyn & Bruce Cormack Frederica Crea Jeffrey Lane Charlotte Kreischer Atlantic Inertial Systems Al Patuzzi Anonymous - 12 others |
You can Tri to help Nick by making a pledge based on Nick's training mileage. He's expecting to log between between 4000 and 6000 miles during the course of the training.
