Triathlon Basics

An Olympic distance race (1500-metre swim, 40km bike, and 10km run) takes most elites around 2 hours, while an age-grouper will complete the course somewhere between 2 and 4 hours. (More...)

This week sees two groups of athletes and officials leaving Nova Scotia for big races whilst another set comes back from one.

Bridgetown (Aug 1) saw the final selection for the Youth team. This was composed of the winner of the points series and the winner of the Provincial Championships at B'town. These athletes travelled to Drummondville, QC, for the U13 and U15 events August 14th. These are draft-legal races and offer these young men and women the best experience possible as they climb the triathon ladder.
