The massive field of competitors for Sunday’s Steamboat Triathlon, sponsored by Colorado Group Realty splashed through LakeCatamount and rolled and ran over the hills southeast of Steamboat Springs, hundreds of athletes soaking in what was a breezy but picturesque YampaValley morning.Nearly 500 athletes took part Sunday, and officials estimated there might have been three times that number at the LakeCatamount start and finish area throughout the day.Matt Smith, who’s competed in each of the race’s six years and now won the past three, dominated the men’s’ category again, covering the course in 1 hour, 33 minutes and 42.3 seconds.Smith recorded the fastest times in the 26-mile bike ride and the 4-mile run to comfortably wrap up the win.Amy Charity, meanwhile, claimed the women’s championship, on a strong all-around race and a super performance on the bike. She finished in 1:48:59.5.Charity was nearly four minutes faster than any other woman on the bike but won by an even greater margin. The day was capped by an award ceremony where race director Joy Rasmussen announced first that next year’s Steamboat Triathlon would be of the slightly longer Olympic distance, and second, that it would be accompanied by a much shorter sprint-distance triathlon in late July at Steamboat Lake.“I couldn’t be happier,” Rasmussen said, speaking about the future of triathlon in Steamboat Springs and about Sunday’s success. Event proceeds will go to the Colorado Group Realty Charitable Foundation. www.steamboatpilot.com
