Locals succeed in Lake Logan races

Nearly 1,000 athletes converged on Lake Logan this month, pushing for a finish in challenging half-ironman and triathlon competitions at the 11th annual Lake Logan Multisport Festival. 

Coming from all over the Southeast and beyond, athleticism was on full display during the Aug. 6-7 races in Haywood County, but plenty of locals entered the races too. A couple of them rose to come out on top in the final standings. 

Sarah Beth Lee, 28, of Waynesville, placed third in the international triathlon with a time of 2:22:21. 

Rob Stamper, 37, of Cherokee, placed fifth in the sprint triathlon, with a time of 1:15:37.
