Does anyone have race results or a source of results by race from the 80's?

I have complete results for Shelburne Vermont and Hilton Head from 1989. No way to get them scanned at the moment but I'd be happy to look up any info you might be interested in (within reason). I too would love to find this stuff posted somewhere online.

Those events were scored by Raceplace Events out of Phoenix, AZ. Is there a particular event you're looking for results for? Or just looking to browse?

Shoot me a PM with you email. All my old race stuff is buried in my parents basement in a giant Rubbermaid. I can see it right now in the corner and I have quite a few.
What race you looking for? I'm heading up there the last week of October.....let me know.

Wow, I'd really appreciate it if you could look up David Hall...I was 19 at the time. After the race was moved to November following Hurricane Hugo(?), I didn't bother to get a wetsuit. Wow was I cold. Still a fun race.
I'm curious to see if the saying "the older I get, the faster I was" holds true...I think I went under 2:10. Hopefully, that wasn't 2:20.
Thanks in advance.

If anyone has Tupper Lake Tinman from 1990, I'd be interested in how I did...great memories.

I have some from Chicago.

I have most all the results from 83 to 86. It is on my computer at home, and right now I'm on my laptop. I know many of the pro results by heart, as I was at most of those races. Not sure if it was the pro results you were looking for or not, but when I get to the mother ship I will print some of them out for you...

I competed in the USTS Shelburne VT. I plan on going back to Shelburne this fall to do some cycling and would like to ride that beautiful but changeling bike coarse again. Is there any chance someone could help me find that bike coarse route from the USTS Shelburne race series?

I also did Hilton Head in '88. I qualified at USTS Baltimore. Remember how they had to reverse the swim start and we had to walk a mile up the beach. Is that your picture? Looks just like Mike Pigg. I really enjoyed the Bud Light USTS series. Great races and locations.

Remember when you used to get race results mailed to you 6 weeks later, in a little results book (the really good races had different rankings by splits). Crazy to think that was only 12-15 years ago.
I still remember the first time I ever saw a timing chip (Mrs. T's Chicago Tri in 1996, I think?). What a crazy technology. Wasn't that the year they had to move Chicago up so it wouldn't conflict with Worlds in Cleveland. Hard to believe Cleveland was such a triathlon powerhouse. Jack Caress really destroyed triathlon in that town. What a shame.

What are you looking for? There were a lot of them.....I have a number of Bud Light USTS race results booklets - Chicago, Baltimore, Hilton Head, Las Vegas, etc.

The bike course for this venue was a little different both years I did it, and it was different the year before I did it. (3 years at this venue I believe). I'd be happy to give you some basics on where to ride, email me off-list.

This is awesome! Several of these races were part of the old Penn-Jersey Triathlon series. I have many of these results in hard copy in a drawer in my kitchen along with MANY more but it is nice to see them online. I loved that No Run All Fun biathlon down in Cambridge MD. Now they call it Aquabike or Aquavelo but I like the "No Run All Fun" moniker better.
I have results from the 1990/91 Bud Light Baltimore races (favorite race course, possibly ever) and 1992 Bud Light Delaware. That race was crazy in that the course crossed train tracks and the male pro leader made it across the tracks in front of a long train while the rest of the top men had to wait it out. I think they estimated how much time each had waited and sorted it out in the end.
Thanks for providing that link. Browsing the results brought back lots of memories and some names of people I had forgotten.

I have quite a few of them---did most of the series in 88 & again in 90 (memory fading??). Haven't looked at them in years. What are you looking for? Also have Hilton Head 86 and a few others from that year.
Eventually I'll get ambitious & scan & upload them someplace. Every year or two someone comes on here looking for them.

"There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs." John Rogers

I think it would be a very fun feature to this site if Dan were to create a tab where forum members could scan and send in old race results - I'm not aware of any on-line archive of our sport. Bud Light, Coors Light, World's Toughest, Palm Springs, Texas Hill Country, Provo - there seem to be a lot of great races that have gone by the wayside.

I have the single sheet results they used to mail you but would love to see the overall results.
I'd also vote in favor of a "Slowtwitch results repository", and contribute what I have. Go for it Dan!

That is too cool! Thanks for posting that. Despite the saying "The older I get, the faster I was", I thought I had gone 4:23. Great memories of that race. I'd love to do it again one day. Maybe 2015...25 years later.
Thanks again.
