  • Comments: Apple is a quality race. Jerry McNeil of Minnesota Tri News poses the possibility that it is the most competitive small field (400) duathlon in the country. There were 3 Worlds slot per AG here so a lot of out of town racers this year. The past 3 years of racing Apple has me with 3 AG podiums including one win and two 2nd places, plus 2 Worlds slots. I'm gonna have to work on my bike to catch Todd Firebaugh next year. He finished 6th at Worlds last year in our AG in Italy. Minnesota Tri News had a post-race blurb about the race and posed the possibility that Todd is the best 45-49 duathlete in the country ( http://minnesotatrinews.blogspot.com/ ).
