In the triathlon, you swim, cycle and then run. The ducks thought it was quacking! The swimming was won by Olivia Dowling, followed by Alicia Corrie and then Erin Dickinson. The changing rooms were very hot, but that would not stop them. After the swimming, they ran down the steps and jogged around the pond. Geese, pigeons and ducks flew out of the way. Once they arrived at the bikes, they jumped out, put their helmets on and tore around the field. Erin came first, with Zac McCrudden, who was followed by James Southern. Once they had cycled half way around, they jumped off and shot around the field like jet planes. James Southern came in the lead, with Erin Dickinson in second and Zac McCrudden in third. It was amazing! Exhausted, hard to breathe and proud were just a few things that could be heard amongst the gasping and panting participants. It didn't stop them from running to the coach though!
