Triathletes compete at Bridgetown


 The Bridgewater Triathlon Club (BTC) was well represented on August 1 in Bridgetown at the largest triathlon held in Atlantic Canada.

 The event had four different race distances with each having local participants.

 In the long course (1.9-kilometre swim, 90-kilometre bike, 20-kilometre run), BTCers included Cliff Worden-Rogers (overall winner in a time of 4 hours and 30 minutes), Tammy Slauenwhite (second in her age group) and Dion McKay.

 This was Tammy and Dion's first long course.

 Ron Allen was in the Olympic distance (1.5-kilometre swim, 40-kilometre bike, 10-kilometre run) and placed third in his age group. Ron is off to Ironman Canada in Penticton, British Columbia later this month.

 The most popular distance was the sprint (750-metre swim, 20-kilometre bike, 5-kilometre run) and included Janelle Knickle (second-fastest female, first in her age group), Wade McIsaac (third in his age group), Freda Cormier, Caitlin Cormier and Tom Rogers.

 In the try-a-tri distance (300-metre swim, 10-kilometre bike, 3-kilometre run), it was Lisa Leahy's first triathlon and she placed third in her age group. Liam Patterson placed third overall and was third in his age group.

 Liam will be joining the Nova Scotia Provincial team at a race in Quebec later this month.

 There are several more races on the 2010 calendar, concluding with the BTC's Riverport Duathlon taking place on Sunday October 3 from the Riverport Elementary School.
