Club Olympic Triathlon

26th September 2009.

 

Following the Norwich Triathlon earlier this year the committee decided to rerun the event for members only as a thank you for those who marshalled the event and were unable to take part. 

As it turned out it was too difficult to rerun the event in the same format as the July race due to having to put out a different swim course for the day and exiting the water at the slipway would mean swimmers crossing the canoes who are also on the lake at the same time as us Saturday mornings. It was decided to use the normal swim course (1600m) and to place transition outside of the OEC. Something I felt worked quite well and we would consider repeating for the Broadsman.

Twenty-one members took part, Mark Nowell held the lead from the start (no surprises there!). For two members is was their first olympic distance race and another his first race for fifteen years. Everyone seemed to enjoy the event and retired afterwards for well earned refreshments in the OEC.
