He believes the Wilkes-Barre Triathlon’s unique and rigorous course is what attracts competi- tors from across Pennsylvania and from other states. “A lot of courses are city courses, and this is a real beau- tiful country course,” Harris said. The course tests competitors with plenty of hills, including a two-mile ascent during the run- ning stage and a three-mile climb during the biking stage. “The bike course has got some pretty good hills to it, and it's not so much that they're steep, it’s that they're long,” Harris said. : Aside from Polliard-McGurk and Robbins, other Back Moun- tain competitors to finish in the top 100 included William Fisk, Sweet Valley, (35th); Jarrod Baranowski, Shavertown, (52nd); Jerry Levandoski, Dal- las, (69th); Mark Belenski, Dal- las, (71st); Charles Eckman, Dallas, (90th); Dave Callahan, Local triaithion finishers Back Mountain competitors and their finishing times in Sunday's Wilkes-Barre Triathlon.
