May 3, 2008 : Kirk places 10th in exceptional Wildflower Men's Pro Field!!

In Kirk's first "big" race and first half of the 2008 season, he managed to sneak into the top 10, just 9 minutes back from 2007 Ironman World Champion, Chris McCormack. Checkout just how competitive this year's Men's Wildflower field was!

"I am 100% thrilled with a top 10 result -- I could not be happier with my race!! A huge thanks to sponsors, support crew, and family for helping me get here! More than anything, thanks to God for letting me get to the finish line healthy!"

Here are some pictures from the event.
