August 21, 2006 --- Sarah-Anne Brault 2nd at Sprint Nationals

Manitoba National Triathlon Center athlete Sarah-Anne Brault finished 2^nd at the 2006 Canadian Sprint Championships in Drummondville, PQ.  Sarah-Anne finished with a time of 1:03:03 behind Pan-Am Champion and Elite National Team athlete Kathy Tremblay. 

Sarah-Anne had a great race getting out in a good position out of the swim.  She then was in the lead pack of 7 cyclists, and stayed with them all the way through the run.  In the end she was out-run by Elite National Team athlete Kathy Tremblay. 

Coach Gary Pallett enthused about his young athlete, saying that this was “another amazing accomplishment considering this was only her 2nd sprint triathlon ever.” 

Sarah-Anne now has some time-off before she heads to Luasanne, Switzerland in late August to compete as part of a strong contingent of Junior athletes on Canada’s National Junior team at the World Triathlon Championships. 

Congratulations Sarah-Anne!
