As his winning Uncle gets ready to cross the finish line, six year old nephew Grayson surprises Uncle David and joins in the final run. David Sokolofsky from Wilmington, North Carolina won his third "Over The Mountain" Triathlon. His assigned number among the participants, written on his left arm, was appropriately #1! Sokolofsky was a previous winner in 2006 and 2008. What unanimously was considered the best ever "Over The Mountain Triathlon" sponsored by the City of Kings Mountain turned out a bevy of participants from all over the country. The event was the result of intense planning, which included adding a new running course to the three challenges. The 12th annual event has garnered a reputation nationally for total excellence. The repeated comment that was heard is that participants could not wait until next year to return. They could not say enough good things of how this Kings Mountain event has become one of the absolute best. The annual triathlon has become a Cleveland County premier event. This years winner, David Sokolofsky, had a time of 2 hours, 10 minutes, and 26 seconds. Everyone who participated or came out to be a part of this 12th annual event enjoyed a great time.
