On Sunday morning, the Fox Valley Triathlon began on the shores of the Fox River and ended in the town of Sandwich, Illinois. In between, two hours of canoeing, biking and running. When the dust settled, it was Thomas Beadle who edged out Adam Jeffers for first place among Team Chippewa. It was a proud showing for the Chippewa campers, who took three of the top four finishes.
Following the race, the group retired to Brothers restaurant to sample the "World Famous Beef Roll" in the town of Sandwich.
It was a great race, and we'll be sure to watch the race website for final overall standings of Team Chippewa. Congrats to each of the triathletes (Thomas Beadle, Matt Hudson, Sam Campbell, Jonah Mueller, Adam Jeffers, Grant Campbell and Mario Sgro) for an outstanding race. Special thanks to Grant for organizing the team. As the camp director, it is wonderful to see the great camaraderie among the campers and staff of Chippewa, whether at Cass Lake or in Sandwich, Illinois. No doubt, many more "beef rolls" await our guys following the race next May.

I hope you got your moneys worth Mike. Oh and by the way I'm pretty sure I dominated the feild, Jeffers was a good two or three minutes behind.

Congrats to all who competed. The results are posted on the Fox Valley website. Nice work campers on a top 10 finish.
Thomas - you're lucky that I'm not 10 years younger and in excellent shape. They'd be calling it the "Jonah Mueller Honorary Sandwich Triathlon brought to you by Camp Chippewa". You're also lucky that those alarms didn't go off.
Jonah,
Even ten years ago I doubt you would have been able to hang with any of the campers...much less win. Keep in mind also that I smoked you even with my little sisters Schwinn.
If I were you, I would turn my attention to Mario, considering he took last by a large margin...
