Tune takes top spot at the 2010 King of the Hill Triathlon!

Published on 5/2/2010
Tupelo Multisport moved their local triathlon, the King of the Hill Triathlon, to the spring from the fall this year.  Unfortunately, the weather did not cooperate and the mid-south area experienced one of the worst storm weekends of the season.

Although the heavy thunderstorms, hail and tornados pounded many areas throughout the weekend, Tupelo remained fairly untouched race morning and the race went on fairly uneventful.  The fallout of the local area weather for the race was a huge drop in participants who showed up on race morning.

Those that did make it experienced a always great race!

Congratulations to the Billy Tune for taking first overall and the other 4 Memphis Thunder Racing finishers!
