Love or it hate it there is no denying Triathlon is popular, 180 people turned up on Sunday for the season opener at Yeppoon. I'll do my best to condense this. The swim was horrible, very rough and the lifesavers were kept busy pulling people out of the water. The conditions were overall pretty good for the bike and run though with the wind around keeping you a little cool. There were plenty of locals up there male and female and quite a few were up there near the pointy end at the end of the day. Of course Ben smoked the field.
What do I like best about the Frogs races? well I could say it's seeing all the people from all walks of life out there having a crack, or I could say it's fun, but for me it's diving my hands into that great big tub of soft lollies at the end of the race :-) If only there was a coffee van at the finish.....
If anyone wants to know what social swimming, riding or runs are on in the Tannum Boyne area just get in contact with me.
Cheers
Mark
