The 14th annual Nantucket Triathlon was held Saturday morning with more than 600 people participating, and for the fourth straight year and eighth time since 2013, island native Beau Garufi took home the victory – finishing with a time of 59:11.
Garufi, 34, was able to build on last year’s first place finish of 1:00.52. The next fastest triathlete this year was Nathaniel Thomas, of Bedford, who completed the triathlon in 1:06.20.
Garufi now has eight Nantucket Triathlon titles since he began competing in 2013: 2013, 2014, 2016, 2017, 2019, 2022, 2023, and 2024. The triathlon was not held in 2020 or 2021.
After Garufi, the next fastest time for a Nantucket participant was none other than the island’s Iron Man himself – Jim Congdon. Congdon, 62, finished fifth overall, first in the age 60-64 category, and earned a time of 1:11.26. Last year, Congdon finished seventh overall.
On the female side, the fastest finisher was Meghan Weiler, 35, of Somerville. She earned a time of 1:15.50. The fastest island woman was Danielle O’Dell, 47, who placed third overall among women with a time of 1:18.04.
The course for the triathlon begins at Jetties Beach with a quarter mile swim. The participants then embark on a 13.4-mile bike ride from Bathing Beach Road all the way out to Millie’s in Madaket after taking several other roads. After turning around and re-racking their bikes, the participants then run along a 3.4-mile course similar to the Brant Point Runners weekly run.
There was also some tragic news to report from the day as one of the triathletes passed away just after 8 a.m. on Saturday. You can read more about the incident here.
Below are some photos taken by Current photographer at large, Kit Noble.
