JUDY FLANNERY DOCUMENTARY WINS AWARD
Judy's Time, the documentary about the late triathlete Judy Flannery, was among seven films taking top honors in the annual IDA Distinguished Documentary Achievement Awards competition. The film is a moving and humorous documentary about a woman’s spectacular midlife transformation from homemaker to four-time world champion masters triathlete.
At 38, Flannery—a mother of five from Maryland—began jogging, worked her way up to marathons and eventually the Hawaii Ironman Triathlon.
Tragically killed at the peak of her career when an out-of-control car struck her bicycle, 57-year-old Flannery was a source of inspiration for other athletes and an outstanding member of her community.

INCUMBENTS RETAIN SEATS IN USAT ELECTION
The USAT National Office has announced that two incumbents will be keeping their seats on the USA Triathlon Board of Directors. In the East Region, incumbent Fred Sommer (Clermont, Fla.) defeated Rob Vigorito (Columbia, Md.) and Alisa Wright Colopy (Cary, N.C.) to maintain his seat on the Board. In the West Region, incumbent Tim Becker (Seattle, Wash.) beat out former Board member Sharron Ackles (Kona, Hawaii) to maintain his seat.
Board president and Mid-Atlantic region member Ray Plotecia (Baltimore, Md.) ran unopposed for his at-large seat as did Brad Davison (Austin, Texas) in the Central Region.
According to USAT election officials, voter turnout was low due to the lack of candidates. Less than 1,000 ballots were received from a membership of more than 38,000.
