Savageman Triathlon this weekend – #1 toughest in the world

Time for the ‘toughest triathlon in the world’ – the SavageMan! I am participating for the first time with the Railey Realty Aid Station at the top of ‘Killer Miller’ hill. Sveral of our agents are racing and participating in the event, which is really exciting. I have heard so many stories about how exciting it is to be involved and to cheer on these world class athletes, so my family and I will be there Sunday morning to get involved and ring some cowbells…

Here is the schedule of events and the main website (lots of cool photos to check out):
