Skinfit travels in the U.S.

Skinfit USA has been all over the state of California lately. We have attended various races and met with new teams. It has been a successful few weeks and in another week we will be back in Northern California for three more events....splash and dash in Cupertino and the Santa Cruz sprint and olympic triathlons.

Then we are off to Chicago for a week of networking and the Chicago Triathlon. We are increasing our efforts in the Chicago area so keep an eye out for us!

Also, plans are being made for a trip to Kona! We are looking forward to being on the big island for the most important triathlon in the world. We will keep you posted as these plan develop!

So, you can expect to see Skinfit USA out at the races. Stop by, say hi, and checkout our gear! Thanks for all of your support as we build this brand in the states.

Nico Lebrun wins Xterra Mountain Champs!

Congrats on another win Nico! Keep up the good work!

Skinfit athlete, Nico Lebrun wins Xterra France Champs!

	Skinfit athlete Nico Lebrun confirmed yet again that he is in top shape this season. He took the win on a very selective course in Xonrupt de Longemer, France. Extreme temperatures and a hilly course made life hard for all athletes. Nico won the race with a time of 2:52:39 (1.5km swim / 34km bike / 10km run). The bike course included 1430meters of climbing and the run an additional 320meters. Great job Nico!!!

Lesley Paterson runs away from everyone to take the WIN!

Skinfit athlete, Lesley Paterson, took the win Sunday at the San Diego international Triathlon! Nice job Lesley...sweet new plasma suit!

Living the Skinfit lifestyle....The U.S. needs one of these!

Yvonne Van Vlerken wins Austria 70.3!

"Austrian Pro Eva Dollinger led the women out of the water with Merje Kiviranta and Heike Funk not far behind. Most of the contenders were hovering around 2.5 - 3 minutes behind after the swim, but Swiss cycling phenom Karin Thürig had lost more than 7 minutes to Dollinger and more than 4.5 minutes to Van Vlerken and Csomor.

Quite a bit changed during the bike, and Van Vlerken pushed hard for the lead. Thürig though came flying through from behind and her 2:18:34 bike split was almost 9 minutes faster than the times ridden by Van Vlerken and Csomor. Defending champion Sandra Wallenhorst overcame a slower swim and managed to put herself into 4th position by the time she reached the second transition.

Thürig started the run with a 2 minute lead over Van Vlerken and Csomor, but the 2 pursuers were clearly running faster. Csomor and Van Vlerken cut the lead into half by the 6k mark and a few miles later pushed past the tall Swiss pro. Van Vlerken got away from Csomor late in the run but Csomor clawed her way back to the front and in the end the 2 women were forced to sprint for the title. Van Vlerken edged out Csomor by 0.2 seconds to take the title in course record time. Thürig held on for the final podium spot."

Congrats Yvonne....what a great way to start the season!!!!
