Argo Re Summer Series Triathlon Results
Despite the weather, the Argo Re Summer Series Triathlon continued on Thursday [Sept 19] even as the forecast of high winds and rain threatened to cancel the event. The organizers soldiered on, but not surprisingly, given the weather, the event had the smallest field of the season.
Experienced triathlete and former President of the Bermuda Triathlon Association Neil de ste Croix was the winner crossing the line in a time of 24:36. Derek Atkins pushed him close until de ste Croix pulled away during the run. Atkins clocked a time of 25:15 while last week’s winner, Romar Douglas, again showed strongly in third place clocking 26:35.
Jennie Lightbourne’s time of 31:59 was this week’s leading lady finishing 7th overall. Sarah Farr was a newcomer to the podium recording a time of 33:08. One spot back was the third female finisher Marie Taylor who clocked a time of 33:58.
