It was an early start on Saturday morning for nearly 50 students and 30 adults from across our BIS community as we held our first ever BIS Triathlon.
A triathlon is a race combining 3 types of aerobic exercise – Swimming, Cycling and Running. Participants had 2 courses to choose from:
| Swim | Bike | Run |
SHORT COURSE | 200m | 5k | 1.5k |
STANDARD COURSE | 500m | 10k | 3k |
Individuals were able to complete the course by themselves or as a team. Regardless of distance or category there was a fantastic atmosphere of fun, challenge and encouragement across all six races.
Well done to all who competed and a huge thanks to Eddies Diner and Rising Star Football Academy Vietnam, who donated prizes for the event. See the results below.
