Moffatt was the only woman at the Dextro event to finish in less than two hours, with a time of 1:59:55. Chocolate Graphics Capital Region franchisees Gwen Cloutier and Catherine Stanish were on hand to witness Moffatt’s win in D.C. “It was sweet to see Emma take the gold,” Cloutier said. “We look forward to seeing her take more gold medals this year! Emma certainly personifies the focus, dedication and integrity that our company embraces.”
With her finish time of 1:59:46 in Des Moines, Moffatt not only took the gold medal, but also triathlon’s biggest cash prize of US$200,000.
