19 Aug '16: Canal Swim Time Change, Triathlon Olympians

 

Canal Swim Time Change – Triathlon Olympians

 

Now that was an exciting race to watch!  The Men’s Triathlon with Henri Schoeman pulling off a brilliant race and getting Africa’s first Olympic medal in our sport.  It was such a surprise and so exciting to see Richard Murray storming in just after Henri.  Such a comeback from Richard, not just for this race but his amazing recovery after that crash 4 months ago.  These guys made us so proud and we think it's going to do wonders for Triathlon in South Africa over the next couple of years.

 

The ladies Triathlon is on Saturday afternoon at 16:00.  We are not missing this.  So we have arranged to do the Canal Swim at 14:00 on Saturday, 20 August.   Please take note of this and arrive early, ready to swim at 14:00.

 

A reminder of our breakfast ride to Café Roux in Noordhoek.  There will be a group leaving from Point Virgin Active at 07:00 to meet up with another group starting from Camps Bay Police Station at 07:30.  We will aim to arrive at Café Roux at 09:00.  Stronger riders will do a loop to Black Hill before meeting other riders at Café Roux.

 

See you Saturday!
