Successful Reiling Triathlon
On 7 June, the 35th Reiling Triathlon took place in Harsewinkel. A total of around 570 athletes lined up at the start and took on the various challenges of the competition. With options for different ability levels, the event offered the right distance for both beginners and experienced triathletes. The options were:
- Olympic distance: 1 km swim, 40 km cycle, 10 km run
- Fun Triathlon: 0.5 km swim, 20 km cycle, 5 km run
- Schoolchildren’s and Taster Triathlon: 0.2 km swim, 10 km cycle, 1.8 km run
The conditions were challenging this year: rain and wind really put the participants to the test. At the same time, the completely closed-off cycle route ensured optimal and safe conditions on the course. Colleagues from our company also successfully took on the challenge of the public triathlon. They mastered the disciplines – a 500-metre swim, a 20-kilometre cycle and a 5-kilometre run – with great motivation and stamina.
The Reiling Triathlon was once again a resounding success and offered all participants a sporting experience in a special atmosphere.
