he Gaylord Specialty Healthcare Sports Association in partnership with the Greater Hartford YMCA fielded its first para-triathalete team to compete in the Dave Parcells Madison Triathalon at the Surf Club in Madison. The team athletes all had some form of physical disability, which can include vision impairment. The athletes all hit the course with volunteer guides who partner them throughout the race.
