It’s hard to put into words just how special this past weekend was.

From the incredible racing on course to the energy from the crowd, every moment reminded us why this sport means so much. Thank you to the athletes, officials, volunteers, and event staff who made it all possible and to every spectator who showed up, cheered loud, and shared in something truly unforgettable. 💙
