A very special triathlon

The smiles and determination on the faces of participants in the Tingirana Noosa Special Triathlon show their enjoyment of the event, and even the loss of the swim leg due to the murky Noosa River waters, resulting from runoff of recent rains, didn’t dampen their spirits.

Participants and their families arrived at the Saturday event from across the state and interstate to participant.

A team came to Noosa from the Community Lifestyle Agency in Maryborough and for many it was not their first time.

Having travelled from Melbourne for the event, it was a first time race for India-Rose, 10, whose brother Sebastian, 14, who has run in the Noosa Superkidz Triathlon for several years, this year participated as his sister’s buddy.

It was the first special triathlon also for Daisy who participated with buddy Isabella (Izzy) and for Remi who was joined in the race by parents Scott and Vivien.

Ten year legend Dom competed in his milestone event with a team of supporters cheering him on.
