We always come home from races with tons of nice footage that doesn't get used. When we saw this year's sad Ironman 70.3 Chattanooga official race highlight video that was LESS THAN ONE MINUTE of actual content from the age group race, we decided to put our footage together and share it out. While it might not have the access of the official video, there are some really nice shots and we hope it highlights all of the incredible age group athletes who were out there on race day -- not to mention the beauty of Chattanooga itself! We also couldn't help but put in a lot of the drone footage from the swim course and river front. It's certainly a big reason why 70.3 Chattanooga is a crown jewel race. Enjoy - and let us know if you like this!

Welcome to the YouTube home of Team Saunders Tri - Cait & Tif
Caitlin began her triathlon career in 2012 on a fat tire bike and no swim background. She met Tiffany when she was training for Ironman Texas 2013. Accompanying Tif through most of the training (minus most of the swimming), and serving as a finish line catcher volunteer, catching Tif at the end of her first Ironman, it didn't take long for the triathlon bug to bite. She completed her first full Ironman in 2015 and added another in 2017 - crossing the finish line both times hand-in-hand with the love of her life.
Tiffany's triathlon life started in 2009 with The Rookie Tri at the Texas Ski Ranch. From the time she crossed the finish line, she was hooked. Since then, she has added 3 full Ironmans to her resume' (Texas 2013, 2015, 2017). But it's the 70.3 distance that has been her favorite calling. Since her first Ironman 70.3 in Galveston in 2010, Tiffany has crossed the Half Ironman finish line more than 25 times, including three Ironman 70.3 World Championship appearances - with Caitlin - in South Africa, 2018, and St. George, Utah, 2021 and Lahti, Finland in 2023.
Team Saunders is documenting the journey of training, life and taking on new challenges along the way. A pair of Age Group triathletes, they hope to motivate and inspire others to find their own challenges.
