Tri Stilbaai being in its 2nd year of existence, some us from Cape Auto Centre Triahtlon Team decided to head down to Stilbaai for an easy weekend away with a triathlon thrown into it.
On the Friday evening Denver, Jana and Jacques decided to take to the water, being low tide the 1,5km swim took us a scary 18mins to swim as the water current took us towards T1 close to the beachfront.
Race morning was cold and wet with a very slight drizzle of rain just cooling down mother nature.
The swim started and finished in a very fast 00:13:11 over the 1000m, into T1 and with the wet conditions it was not easy getting into our mountain biking kit.
The mtb started with a session of road before we turned off route onto some very hard climbing over rocks and felt like it will never end making this a very hard and challenging off road route.
The 33km of MTB was over in 01:20:02 and into T2 to get the running legs working.
The run was shortened to a 8km trail starting with a “river” crossing on canoes before hitting the soft sand where soon after we jumped onto the hard gravel road taking us back to the race village and finish line.
I ran in at 2:12:20 finishing in 6th overall and 5th in our age category.
Tri Stilbaai will grow into a very well participated event in the future and Cape Auto Centre Triathlon Team will keep on supporting the event and helping the guys from 24-7 Adventures grow this event.
