Another big achievement for the West Seattle triathlete! From her sister, Susan Robinson:

Proud to announce that my sister, Judith Sentz (of West Seattle), participated in the World Ironman Triathlon on Oct. 8th in Kona, Hawaii. The race consists of a 2.4-mile ocean swim, 112-mile bike ride, and a full marathon, 26.2 miles. That’s 140.6 miles!! Judy finished 14th in her age group (60-64) in just over 14 hours. Her family was there to cheer her on. She is an amazing West Seattle athlete!

She qualified for the world-championship event by winning her division in a triathlon in Idaho earlier this year.

Wow! My neighbor is friends with her and was telling me about her. Oh, and she looks closer to 30! (btw-Robin…NBC should just air it live if they don’t want the results leaked)
