2018 Triathlon Race Season in Review

It’s the end of August and the 2018 race season is now largely behind us, but what a season it was.  

TriFactor members showed up and competed hard in each of the Triathlon Manitoba sanctioned events this year.  TriFactor teammates raced in the Birds Hill duathlons in May, Triple Threat, and St. Malo races in June, Kenora Borealis and Hecla Island races in July and the Riding Mountain and Pinawa races this past month.  

Highlights included new members’ first ever races at Birds Hill, personal bests at St. Malo and Hecla, a 1-2 age group finish at Kenora, and age group placings galore at Pinawa in all three distances.  Special shout out to Robert for racing his first local this year!

TriFactor members also completed at Ironman Calgary in July, shattering a personal best time for Claudio (and gathering some hard-won experience for Marc). 

We all looked on jealously while Lesley flew TriFactor’s colours on her ride through the French countryside in late July and August.  Lesley put on more than 650 kilometres through the vineyards, tunnels, and canals of eastern France.  Way to go! 

Finally, TriFactor alumnus John Power killed it at Ironman Mont Trembly.  Next stop Kona?

Congratulations to everyone who ate up the courses this year.  Can’t wait to break a few more records in 2019!

But, the season’s not yet quite over.  We’ll be cheering on Stacey at Ironman Maryland later in September. 

Off season training coming up!

TriFactor meets Triple Threat

Thanks to our Triple Threat friends for putting on a terrific race this weekend at Birds Hill Park.  The team worked hard to grind out some PB's and strong finishes in the heat and the wind.  Special congratulations to our first timers.

2018 race season is now officially on!

Training Camp 2018!

Great TriFactor turn out at training camp this weekend in Riding Mountain National Park.  Our spirits were buoyed amid soggy weather by good food and better friendship.  



While it was too cold to swim, the crew rode the rolling hills up and down highway 10 each day and enjoyed running through Wasagaming along the shore of Clear Lake.

Now we can shift our attention to race season.  See you in the summer!

Spring 2018!

The snow is gone, spring is here, and our 2017-2018 indoor off-season officially comes to a close!  

Come join us for our outdoor workout super Saturday series!

• Optional drop-in swim (with drop-in fees), 7:30 to 8:30 at CKRC 
• Long bike ride, starting no later than 10:00 at BHP at the North Drive parking lot opposite Nimowin Road.  (As we move into the summer race season, we'll likely change up the locations and durations of our Saturday rides)
• Group run, following the ride

New and prospective members are welcome.  Please contact Erin
