The weather for the 2024 Triathlon in Annecy was much cooler this year compared to last years full on sunshine but maybe the triathletes were happy about that!
If you're a triathlete or para-triathlete and you're tempted to come to Annecy or maybe you want to give it a go, make a note of the date in your diary. It's usually the last weekend in June. There is the possibility to do it individually or as a relay.
For children there are different courses depending on age category:
6-9 yrs = 'Mini-Poussins' (chicks) 50 m swim, 1000 m cycle, 500 m run.
10-11 yrs = Pupilles (pupils) 100 m swim, 2 km cycle, 1 km run.
11-12 yrs = Benjamins (youth) 200 m swim, 4 km cycle, 1.5 km run.
For the disabled, the race is: 200 m swim, 2 km cycle, 1 km run.

1200 participants took part this year, that's 300 more than last year. This is what it looked like....
Despite the gloomy weather, there as a great atmosphere at the finish. Each year when I see the event, I have a fleeting thought, shall I, shan't I? It's on my list!
Should you decide that yes, this is for you but you're unsure on how to arrange things, give me a shout, I'm more than happy to help fellow sportsmen/women.
That's all for now, until next time
À bientôt......
