Collis Williams wins third HLC
Posted: Wed, 27 Oct 2010 06:44 PM - 7,613 Readers
By: Llano County Journal
Collis Williams easily outdistanced runner-up, Keith Bell, to win his
third consecutive Tex Robertson Highland Lakes Challenge. Williams’
aggregate time for the Monster Challenge in the five-lakes-in-five-days
event was 5 hours 30 minutes 58 seconds. Californian, Ali Hall, won the
women’s side with a time of 6:47.50.
Robert Alford won the three-day-three-lake Weekend Warrior, overtaking
Ken Turner on the final stage to squeak out his third consecutive
victory.
Williams completed a sweep of all five stages with his win in the 3.25
mile Lake Travis Stage on the last day, claiming all five of the whole
Bluebonnet Cafe’s World Famous Pies, one of which is awarded to each
day’s Monster Challenge Stage winner.
“We always want more, but it was a good turnout,” race organizer and
competitor Keith Bell said. :It was a little bigger than past years. We
had some regulars who had conflicts, but next year should really grow.”
This year’s race included swimmers from all over the United States, and
as far away as India where female swimmer Meenakshi Pahuja came from.
She placed third in this year’s event and expects more competitors to
come in next year from her home country.
