Date: July 25, 2026 Participant: Nicole Noel #7167 Race: 2026 Spudman Olympic Triathlon Event: Olympic Triathlon Weather: Hot, but otherwise a great day for a triathlon.

Strong Closing Kick Highlights Steady Endurance Nicole Noel completed her Olympic Triathlon in Burley, showing consistent effort across all three disciplines. Her swim and bike legs progressed steadily, with bike speed settling around 11.5 mph over the course. Transitions were efficient, keeping momentum between segments. The standout moment came late in the run, where Nicole surged to 16th overall and 7th among women during one stretch a burst of speed that stood out sharply against the rest of her race. This late-race strength suggests strong aerobic conditioning and a good sense of pacing herself for a finishing push. Building a bit more consistency in the earlier run miles could help her carry that same energy from start to finish in future races. Overall, a well-executed race capped by an impressive final surge.
