No swimming discipline?
No problem.
Vernon香蕉视频直播檚 Kal RATS Sprint Triathlon, making its return after a two-year COVID hiatus, was dealt an early blow Saturday, June 25, when the City of Vernon closed swimming at Kin Beach 香蕉视频直播� home base for the event 香蕉视频直播� due to poor water quality levels.
So the race Sunday, June 26, which drew 79 individual competitors and six relay teams, went to Plan B: add a second run portion to kick things off, two kilometres in length, followed by the 18.5 km bike discipline and ending with the five km run.
The change didn香蕉视频直播檛 bother Kelowna香蕉视频直播檚 Cory Krist. At all.
Krist was the only competitor to cover the course in sub-60 minutes, finishing in 54 minutes 51 seconds. He was first in his age group, Men香蕉视频直播檚 40-44.
Samuel Lazar of Salmon Arm was second overall (first in Men香蕉视频直播檚 45-49) with a time of 1:00.54, and Elliot Barber of Lake Country placed third overall (first in M30-34 age group) in 1:01.43.
Like the men, the top three women finishers were first in their age groups.
Vernon香蕉视频直播檚 Tracy Moore was the first woman across the finish line (ninth overall, first in W55-59) in 1:09.01. Julie Provost of Kelowna was second (first in W35-39) in 1:13.42, and Jennifer Proce of Lake Country was third (first in W25-29) in 1:14.35.
The Hot Peppers were first in the team relay, covering the course in 1:01.54.
