The 2005 addition of the Sunfish Triathlon was contested on July 9th in Meridian, Mississippi.  209 brave souls completed the 600 meter swim, 21+ mile bike, and 5 mile run.
 
Jim Coll, Robin Ryder and Dave Beckett represented the Pine Belt Pacers in fine fashion.  Dave, despite severely spraining an ankle, highlighted the performances by placing 2nd in his age group.  Jim, after blindly navigating the swim portion, was able to bounce back with strong bike and run legs.  Despite a longer swim than previous years Jim improved his overall time by almost nine minutes.  Robin on the other hand was left out of the awards once again.
