Congrats to four ORR Athletes who had fantastic races at the first annual C Different Telfair Triathlon! This new triathlon benefits the C Different Foundation (mission stated below!) and has both Sprint and Super Sprint events. Both Triny and Brad have helped guide visually impaired athletes at various triathlon and running events. Triny will be helping guide Brandon Adame this coming weekend at the Sugar Land Half Marathon.

The C Different Foundation works to create opportunity for visually impaired athletes to participate in athletic events. CDF also seeks out other types of opportunities for our athletes to share their message. We promote total integration — not separateness — for blind and visually impaired athletes for the benefit of society in all countries worldwide.

Bradley Pigage finished first overall in the Sprint event! Triny Aguirre finished eigth, second overall female, and first in her 40-44AG. Amy Barr finished third in the 35-39AG. Alan Jones finished 4th overall and 1st in his AG in the Super Sprint event. Way to go ORR!!

Here are there results:
Brad Pigage: 54:40, 1st overall, sprint
Triny Aguirre, 1:08:00, 2nd overall female, sprint
Amy Barr, 1:12:32, 3rd in 35-39AG, sprint
Alan Jones, 38:33, 4th overall, 1st 40-44AG, super sprint
