Written by Staff

July 28, 2010: On Sunday, July 18, Bronxville residents Eric Haims and Scott Samios completed the 2010 New York City Triathlon. The triathlon, now in its 10th year, is held every summer in mid-July.

This year's race featured approximately 3,500 triathletes from around the world. The event is an Olympic-distance triathlon and is comprised of a 1.5k swim in the Hudson River from 99^th Street to the 79^th Street boat basin; a 40k bike ride North on the Henry Hudson Parkway and over the Henry Hudson Bridge into the Riverdale section of the Bronx; and a 10k run across West 72^nd Street and around the north loop of Central Park to the finish line.

Eric finished his third NYC Triathlon in a row with a time of 2:39:57, having also finished the 2008 and 2009 New York City Triathlons. He placed 815 out of 3,472 finishers, or 152 out of 409 in his age group of men 40 to 44. Scott finished his first NYC Triathlon with a time of 2:34:24 which was good for 540^th place, or 107 out of 410 in his age group of men 40 to 44.

Eric and Scott are members of the Bronxville Triathlon Club and run and cycle regularly in the village and Westchester County.
