Today was race number 5 for the North Coast Interclub Series. Unlike the challenging conditions faced at the Tweed Enduro last month, participants at the Kingscliff Triathlon were greeted with a refreshing overcast sky and cooler weather. The swim, with its rolling start and tide assistance, provided a smooth start to the race. Despite a light drizzle during the bike leg, it was a pleasant albeit congested ride. The scenic run through the picturesque seaside town of Kingscliff added to the overall charm of this amazing event. Thank you to the Kingy community, NX Sports and all the volunteers who ensure our race is the best it can be. A HUGE thank you to our supporters today Huw, Beck, Benz, John, Darren, Larissa, Jarred and to our charming Charlie @reelpix who will provide his quality pics.
Our members once again showcased their incredible talent at the event, with Filippo leading the charge in the sprint category, finishing 6th overall among the male participants. Cara Brisbane also put on an impressive performance, narrowly missing out on being the first sprint breaker home by just 52 seconds. Cara was 7th female overall
Amidst the fierce competition in the standard distance category, Jaime, despite feeling flat, delivered an outstanding performance by finishing 2nd in his age group and 11th overall.
