Site Last Updated: Wednesday, September 01, 2010

                  Good luck to JSTC's Dave Slavinski, Gary Smith and Joe Rooney at the 2010 World Duathlon Championship this weekend in Scotland.

Mark Catalano

1956-2010

Sad news as we learn of the passing of Mark Catalano, 54, of Jackson.  Mark was a role model as an active family man.   He showed us how a gifted athlete should carry one's self, and was a fixture on the podium at area running and tri races.

Above, Mark carried both Ocean Running Club and Jersey Shore Triathlon Club membership pride to the podium at Lighter Than Air Duathlon 2009. 

Our sincere thoughts and prayers go to Mark's wife Barbara, and daughters Brooke and Brittany. 

Services will be held on Friday from 5 - 9pm at:
George S. Hassler Funeral Home
980 Bennetts Mills Road
P.O. Box 1326
Jackson Twp., NJ 08527

Chambervich Fires On All Cylinders To Earn 1st Career Victory

Joe D. 2nd, Jesse O'Donnell 3rd

Island Heights folks came out and hosted a great morning of triathlon.  They were  rewarded with spectacular Jersey Shore racing in both the men and women's field.

Tim Chambervich, (BPC powered),  trailed JSTC's Steve Hodgins out of the swim and bike, saw Joe D. come by on two wheels, and then ran a career best triathlon 5K to earn victory.  JSTC's Jesse O'Donnell continues to impress, this time with a #1 bike split sandwiched between a strong swim and run. 

Cheap Women

Feinstein 2nd, Demeo 3rd, Enderly 4th and Patla 5th

Green Brook Racing's Laura Fucci wore JSTC for her first ever triathlon and smiled all the way to the finish line

Below, Kristen Enderly, (L), was 1st out of the swim and stayed strong throughout for 4th OA.  Laura Demeo, (R), battled to 3rd

Cheap, Fast and Not So Easy....But oh what fun!

Clockwise from above left, Mark Bennett tidy's up, Sue Nemiroff sports the classic tri jersey, Jean Verrier stepped in as the swim mark on the beach after the RD was too "cheap" to blow up the arch, and the DeGutis' are all smiles, thanks to quick 15 minute ride from bed to transition.

Men's Age Group Winners

Stafford and Clayton Break Out Big

Ambrose Stafford dives into turn 1 on his way to age group victory at the 2010 Kick Off

 

JSTC's Ambrose Stafford, (above), and Ryan Clayton, (left), busted out of the gates at the Kick Off and triathlon careers by capturing top honors in their age groups. 

Stafford  won 40-44 in a dual to the finish in 1:01:21.  Clayton cracked the top 10 with a 57:59 to win 35-39.  Congratulations men on your off season training and great start to 2010!

 

 

Curran Debuts To Capture 20-24

Young Mike Curran, masters swim coach at the local Atlantic Club, was impressive in his JSTC debut.  He was 7th overall, and one of a record 13 racers to crack the magic 1 hour mark on the day in 57:32.  Look for more improvement and hard racing from Mike as the year progresses.  Congrats!

 Miller, Horn, and Smith Lead JSTC Veteran Parade To Podium

   

L-R:  Ricky Miller, (25-29), Tim Horn (30-34), and Gary Smith (55-59), all took top honors in their age groups at the 2010 Kick Off. 

Horn and Smith were both an impressive 1/1/1 in AG split times.  Miller found himself behind in the swim for the first time in his AG jersey Shore career, then smoked a #1 bike split to make 54:51 a winner.  Horn finished in 58:08, while Smith cruised in at 100:56.

Hodgins Wins Clydesdale

 

Steven Hodgins, (above), put a big stake in the ground to win the Kick Off Clydesdale division in an impressive 57:55.  Hodgins had the 2nd fastest swim split on the day overall, and never looked back with solid bike and run to the finish.  Congrats to Steve!

Podium Party

Pictured above, Jesse O'Donnell's, (2nd 25-29),  57:44 was good for 7th overall and may very well have been the "under the radar" performance of the day.  George Cottrell (45-49), Tom Dillon (50-54), and Mike Washakowski (55-59), all took 2nd AG, and Mickey Syrop added a 3rd in 50-54.

Feinstein, Slavinski Reach OA Podium

Jasontek, Duda and Wilcox Capture Top AG Honors

L-R, Liz Conway, Kat Conway, and Dawn Lenz soak up a great morning of triathlon

The 2010 Women's Kick Off made for a great day for the JSTC.

Liz Conway navigates off the bike.  Nobody runs bike dismount better than JSTC's Jon Feinstein.

Barbara Feinstein's #1 run split was just enough to edge fellow club mate Carrie Slavinski.  Hugs at the start and finish, and an all out war in between.  Expect nothing less the rest of 2010 from these two JSTC Triathletes of The Year recipients. 

Carrie (left), and Barbara (right).  Weekday moms, weekend warriors

Heather Jasontek, back from her hiatus in England, picked up where she left off, to capture 30-34 AG honors in 1:08:10

Dawn Wilcox has a leaner stronger body and a new bike for 2010.  It has already paid dividends, with a 1:07:50 35-39 AG victory.

Tina Duda also has a new 2010 look with more speed, and stronger endurance.  Ironman bound, she looked raced her best to date in JSTC colors to capture 60 and over in 1:36.

Women explode in wave 1 to start the Jersey Shore Sprint Series.  Right, the veteran Tina Duda.

 

Heather Jasontek (left), loves to get on the run!  Right, 3rd place AG Tamie Madigan was awesome, and may well be working her way up the 35-39 podium in the near future.  She looked strong in her 2010 debut.

 

Left, Sarah heads into the start.  Right, Stephanie Crofton Carey of TriSmart Coaching wishes everyone good luck.
