Some more pictures from the swimming part of the Triathlon (swimming+cycling+running) that took part in my town last Saturday. (See more of the event in my Shadow Shot Sunday post.)
The temperature in the water was said to be 14,5°C
Any style of swimming was allowed.
Hey, there must be something extra going on in town today.
Hardly likely that all these people took their bikes into
the city just because it happens to be a sunny day!
And what is everyone standing in line for?
1-2-3… Obviously a competition of some kind.
Involving wetsuits AND bikes?!
Yep. It’s our very own Triathlon.
Starting with swimming 200 m in the river.
Then quickly out of the water…
… drop the wetsuit, and grab the bike…
… for a race around town …
On a day like this, not too boring for the audience
to have to wait in the park until they come back.
Ah, here they come again, on foot this time…
Trying to outrun their own shadows!
Thirsty work on a hot day!
(Sorry not to have a photo of the winners -
I have to confess I didn’t wait around for that.)
