Meet team members competing in Challenge Quassy 2015!
Kim DuBord (F 40-44)
Racing Quassy for the 6th year in a row. (5th doing the Oly) I hate hills so don’t ask me why I’m doing it….. 
Would love another PR here but they are getting harder to come by. Looking forward to racing with all you cool EN peeps!
Michelle Swanson (F 50-54)
I am a Canadian living in Massachusetts. Quassy will be my 5th HIM, second time doing Quassy. My race day goals will be to exquisite this race as a B race.. I am using a new fueling plan and riding my first TT bike. I will be using Quassy to ensure my fueling choices are correct and to become more “race” comfortable on my bike!
I really like this course and am excited to be be doing it again this year!
Steve West (M 55-59)
Steve West from Orono Maine where I live with my wife Carole and sister-in-law Cynthia. I work in timberland management as a GIS Analyst on 800,000 acres of private, family owned forestland.
I began running in 2000 and ran my first marathon in 2004 then found triathlon in 2009 at Lobsterman on the Maine coast. Since then I have completed 5 70.3 races and IMLP twice. I have yet to do a 70.3 as a stand-alone race. This year will be no different.
Instead of training to race, I race to train. It gives purpose and focus to my endurance addiction.
My goals for the weekend is to have fun and avoid injury on my path to IMLP. I expect to push hard for the Olympic race on Saturday but not all out, likely at 87% – 91% effort on the day. Then Sunday will be “best sustainable effort” and suspect 80% will be difficult but achievable.
I’ve heard there are a few hills…… Bring it!
