Fuji Athletes in the News

June 10, 2019

Fourteen years after earning her first professional victory in the same city, Sarah Haskins won the Herbalife24 Los Angeles Triathlon on June 2 on her Fuji Norcom Straight. Haskins had competed in L.A. twice before, winning in 2005 and finishing in 2009. This year’s race returned after a five-year hiatus.

This past Sunday, Haskins finished third in the Escape From Alcatraz Triathlon in San Francisco.

Amy Morrison rode her Fuji Auric LT to a second-place finish at the Capital Forest Enduro mountain bike race in Olympia, Wash., on June 1. The podium finish was a perfect tune-up for Morrison, who now heads overseas for the European rounds of the Enduro World Series.

Norwegian champion Vita Heine of Team Hitec (above) attacked on the final climb of the day, the Hankaberg, on the way to her third win of the season on Stage 3 of the UCI Lotto Thüringen Ladies Tour on May 30 in Germany. “I had one of my greatest victories in my career,” the 34-year-old said. “It was also cool, because it was on a hill finish which is hard and everyone has respect for Hankaberg.”
