Each year Greg Judin packs up his family and combines an epic week of racing with a wonderful family vacation in Knysna, South Africa at the Knysna Oyster Festival.   With over 100 events to choose from,  Greg chose to participate in 5 of the most hotly contested events over the course of the week. Starting with Saturday (7/4), he raced the 80km mountain bike race and immediately the next day he did the 110km Road Cycling Race.  On Tuesday (7/6) he did the 15km Trail running Race. Thursday was the XTERRA off-road duathlon (3k trail run, 23k MTB, 7k trail run and he finished off the week doing a Half Marathon Running Road race on Saturday 7/11.   Greg had some great results and with comparing this years to last years events, he noticed an improvement in all of the events.   His most notable result for the week was his 4th place placing in his category for the Duathlon.   Overall he (and his PCG coach, Karen Mackin) were very pleased with the results for the entire week! Congratulations Greg!
