It was a good day for the second annual Hike and
Bike on the Dike event sponsored by Boundary
Search and Dive Rescue Team.

On Saturday, July 27, teams showed up to compete
in the two person team event where one starts
running while the other team member rides a
bike. The team can alternate positions as often
as they want during the course, but must plan to
cross the finish line at the same time.
The winning team this year was Jessie Gondek and
Jared Lysne with a time of 47:48, Marcus and
Steve Girod came in second with a time of 52:22
and closely on their heels was Sarah Byars and
Amber Yassine with a time of 53:38 to take third
place.
The number of teams participating this year was
about double from last year, with the first
place winners walking away with a $100 prize.
Boundary Search and Dive Rescue Team hosts the
event to raise funds to support its operation
and equipment needs and greatly appreciated the
support of Super One Foods for providing the
lunch and drinks, and Far North Outfitters for
donating the second place award, and the group
especially wants to thank those that showed up
to participate in the event.
This is an annual event that is held the last
Saturday of July, and the goal is to continue to
double the participants as often as we can. |
