PTC Aquathlon - recap

The 2nd annual PTC Vancouver Aquathlon was held on May 7th in North Vancouver. Athletes ages 14-19 completed the 500m pool swim and 3km trail run in cool and rainy conditions. Some athletes were using the event as a tune-up to their upcoming triathlon season, while others were doing their first multisport race.


Congratulations to all the athletes who took part! Award winners were: Conor Doherty (1st place male 16-19); Robynne Shannon (1st place female 16-19); Rowan Doherty (1st place male under 16).

A big thank you to all the volunteers and parents who helped to make the event a success!

We would like to thank the following sponsors for their generous support which allowed every participant to go home with a draw prize: Different Bikes, North Shore Athletics, Powerbar and Bean Around The World.

Finally we would like to thank Triathlon BC and the North Vancouver Recreation Commission for their support of this event.
