HLB Tri Team members Mark Hardiman, Stacie Neroni, and Arnold Pamplona took one step closer to reaching their goal of finishing a Half Ironman Race. They competed today in the Vineman Aquabike, a race consisting of a 1.2-mile swim in the Russian River and a 56-mile bike ride through the vineyards of Sonoma. "All we have to do is tack on a half marathon, and we're there," remarked Neroni, anticipating October's San Diego Triathlon Challenge, which will be the Team's first Half Ironman. Neroni was right to be excited. She continued her dominance in the swim, completing the 1.2-mile course in under 40 minutes.
