Big Shark is hosting the Tour de Grove and the Midtown Alley Grand Prix cycling races, and it comes with a twist for all you fast runners and triathletes.

The kicker is, they are putting up $1,700 in cash as a prize purse. The Ultramax crew will be there providing timing services and we would love to see some of the Ultramax Nation suporters win some if not all of that prize package.

The 2010 Topeka TinMan - The TinMan is nearing 600 entrants and promises to be like no other TinMan before. Ultramax Events and Sherpa Sports (producers of Ironman 70.3 Kansas & Branson) have teamed up and taken over the management of this race. This event has history, it is one of the longest running triathlons in the nation. Can you believe this is the 30th annual event. This race is older than Ironman!

We hope you are making plans to make history with us in Topeka. To celebrate, we are giving away a FREE pair of Tifosi Sunglasses to all registrants that also raced in the Kansas City Triathlon.

To celebrate 30 years, we commisioned Bangwagon to design and produce a new kind of event shirt. We wanted a more casual wear, trend setting design.
