Jeff and our German friend, Lukas, had a USA vs. Germany show-down in 2009 at the Deer Creek Triathlon. With it being Lukas’s very first tri, Jeff had an unfair advantage. The pair decided to have a rematch at the 2011 Deer Creek Tri. Lukas, in the midst of his training for Ironman Louisville, and Jeff, taking a relatively “easy” year with mostly shorter triathlons, were more evenly matched this year. Below are the photo highlights from each of the sports.
Lukas’s dog was here as his cheerleader (though she seems a little distracted)

And the big finish, less the two minutes apart. Both were top 10 finishers!
USA! USA! USA!
