World Triathlon Bermuda Pep Rally On April 9
With some 20 days to go before the MS Amlin World Triathlon Bermuda, organisers are inviting the Bermuda public to celebrate at a fun City Hall Pep Rally at lunchtime next Tuesday, April 9th.
The occasion will mark the official kick-off of this year’s race and will celebrate Bermuda’s young triathletes with Nadanja serving as as the MC.
Special guests, including Maria Duffy, mother of Commonwealth Games gold-medal winner and world champion Flora Duffy, will join the celebration along with some of Bermuda’s Carifta triathlon team. It will be a short family-friendly event with a performance from the Jump Rope Federation, music and giveaways.
Information will be available about the full schedule of events from the Opening Ceremony to the final day of shopping festivities and organisers will be on hand to help sign up volunteers for those who wish to be involved.
According to the organisers, the MS Amlin World Triathlon Bermuda 2019 is even bigger than last year with more than 100 elite athletes racing for Olympic qualifying points and to experience the incredible atmosphere of Hamilton on race day.
Organisers said they “are expecting more than 600 athletes to participate in the weekend triathlon festival, with thousands of spectators lining the streets to recreate the incredible atmosphere of last year’s inaugural event.”
“So, join in the fun at City Hall in Hamilton between 12.30pm and 1pm, as a thank you to the event sponsors and athletes as the clock counts down to this highly anticipated international sporting event,” the organisers said.
