Jarrod Shoemaker, ‘04, will represent the United States this summer in Beijing. From The Dartmouth:

Competing in possibly the most grueling sport around today, Jarrod Shoemaker ‘04 has, in all senses of the term, made it. A triathlete and a former runner for the Dartmouth varsity track team, Shoemaker will be representing the United States in the triathlon at the 2008 Olympic Games this summer in Beijing.

Shoemaker, from Sudbury, Mass., has had a short but outstanding career as a triathlete. He decided to compete in triathlons in 2003, his senior year at Dartmouth, and after only four races, he turned professional. After winning the Under-23 National and World Championships, Shoemaker’s career has continued to skyrocket.

After amassing nine top-10 finishes in the past two years, Shoemaker’s path to stardom has culminated in his selection to the 2008 U.S. Triathlon National Elite Team this year. As the first member to make the team, Shoemaker will lead the U.S. in the competition in Beijing.

Good luck!
