Don, Tisseyre Run Away With 70.3 Monterrey

Great Britain’s Tim Don and Canada’s Magali Tisseyre earned the victories today in Monterrey, Mexico.

Don put together a 23:10 swim, a 2:04:22 bike and a 1:12:34 half-marathon to claim the 3:42:49 win. American Kevin Collington finished in the runner-up spot at 3:42:49, with Mexico’s own Mauricio Mendez Cruz rounding out the top three just 11 seconds later at 3:46:15.

Tisseyre, who has not traditionally known as being a strong swimmer, was solid across the board today. She turned in a 25:29 swim, a 2:12:03 bike and a 1:20:05 run to easily take the victory in 4:00:48. American Sarah Piampiano was strong on the bike and run to finish in second at 4:11:03, with Canada’s Angela Naeth grabbing third at 4:12:54.
