The Race / RACE TEAM

Jeff & Lori Cook

Tri-Athletes, Race Founders, Organizers & Gracious Hosts

Jeff and Lori have a passion for fitness and healthy competition. Over the years they have trained for and competed in many triathlons, marathons and bike races. They've felt the good effects of training and working hard to achieve a goal and wish to share that feeling with others. For the fourth year in a row, they're opening their home to many friends and family to come share in a competition among family and friends.

The Cooks have been married since 1992 and are faithful servants of Jehovah serving in the Maplecrest Congregation in Fort Wayne, Indiana. While the Cooks are passionate about running, cycling and swimming, it is their service to Jehovah that takes the first place in their lives.

If you're in the Fort Wayne area, join the Cook's for Sunday night cycling. The more we can get in the draft, the better.


Alan Falls

Tri-Athlete, Race Organizer

You might see Alan around town managing carpet cleaning crews for his family's business Referral Carpet Cleaning & Restoration. Alan is a fun-loving, go-getting rascal who shares the Cook's passion for fitness training (look at those arms!). He, Jeff and Lori dreamed up the idea of having a friends and family race together back in 2011. Little did they know the idea would catch on so quickly! Cook's Tri is a massive undertaking and requires a lot of work to put on each year. It couldn't be done without Alan's help.

Alan is also a Witness of Jehovah. He and his beautiful bride Audrey were married in 2014 and attend the Headwaters Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses in Fort Wayne, Indiana.
