Agents and Staff “Never Stop Moving” in Wilmington YMCA Triathlon

Seventeen Coldwell Banker Sea Coast Realty agents and staff were among the 1,300 participants in last Saturday’s Wilmington YMCA Triathlon. The race is the largest single distance, one day event held anywhere between northern Virginia and Florida. All proceeds of the race will benefit the YMCA’s youth programs.

Participating agents and staff were Tina Abraham, Ryanna Avery, Wendy Shorter-Bridges, Theresa Brockway, Melanie Cameron, Mary Ellen Condon, Shawndy Conway, Ryan Crecelius, Nicole Ferguson, Michelle Gurrera, Jessica Keenan, Dana Little, Brian Moxey, Rebecca Moxey, Alisha Murray, Alex Paen, and Sean Skutnik. Agent Russ May also helped out as the team photographer.

The race began in Wrightsville Beach with a 1,500 meter swim through Banks Channel. The next portion of the race was a 20 kilometer (12.4 mile) bicycle route that wound through Wilmington and returned to Wrightsville Beach. Then the race concluded with a five kilometer (3.1 mile) run along Wrightsville Beach’s popular “loop”.

Most of the Sea Coast team was participating in a triathlon for the first time, including agent Melanie Cameron. “A group from the office has been training for about four months now. We’ve been swimming the channel at Wrightsville Beach all summer and I’ve been running and biking on my own to get ready,” she said. Director of Business Development Brian Moxey, a triathlon veteran, says that running a triathlon and a real estate career are not that different. “The reward of finishing a race is very similar to closing a transaction, but it’s also similar because people don’t see all the preparation and hard work that an agent goes through to get there. There’s a lot of grunt work involved before you ever get to the big day.”

Whether they are swimming, biking, and running to the finish line or helping folks buy and sell homes, these hard-working real estate professionals “never stop moving.” Learn more about how to make Coldwell Banker Sea Coast Realty part of your winning team at seacoastrealty.com.
