Triathlon Ontario congratulates Ian MacKinnon and Jackie Douglas for their gold medal performances at the 2014 Ontario Summer Games, held in Windsor, Ontario on August 9th. The girl’s race was very close while the boys had a bit of back and forth. Relays 44 out of the 48 athletes came back a few hours later to compete in the mixed relays. The relays were a non-medal event so the athletes were competing for pride, fun and some prizes. After re-jigging a couple teams to account for a few injured athletes, 10 teams of girl-boy-girl-boy and one team of boy-boy-girl-boy lined up on the shortened course. Under this format, each competitor completed a 200m swim, 5km bike, 1.5km run before tagging the next teammate who completed their leg. Famous triathletes were used as team names and much like on the ITU circuit, Team Javier Gomez (James Cooke, Jack Bone, Spencer Robinson, Nicole Ritchie) took first (1:24:50), Team Gwen Jorgensen (Allison Gibb, Ryan McCallum, Erika Rankin, Jeremy Cunningham) took second (1:25:09), Team Alistair Brownlee (Ian MacKinnon, Oliver Davies, Samantha Howard, Tarrah Price) took third (1:25:53). The action was fast and furious and very exciting...

Multisport Canada Toronto Island – (2 Days) 2014 Bobby Orr Hall of Fame Triathlon and KOS® Ontario Women's Triathlon Dunrobin KOS® (Ontario Youth Cup Race + Draft Legal)

Triple Crown Update With the Olympic distance provincials complete, two of the three events are complete in the Olympic distance Triple Crown Challenge. The stage is complete for a fantastic finish in Edmonton at the World Championships. The men’s side is heating up. Richard Gilbert and Jackson Laundry are tied for first place with 30 points (lowest point total wins) after Nationals and Provincials, while Mike Greenberg is breathing down their necks one point behind with 31 points. Andrew Bolton, Brian Laundry and Carm Morra are staying close with 34, 35, and 36 points respectively. Jackson Laundry holds the tiebreaker advantage if needed as his finishing time was closest to the winner at Provincials. On the women’s side it looks as though Meghan Lamers will take the title as long as she completes the race in Edmonton. Barring an administration error, Meghan survived attrition and is

the lone competitor left that has competed in both Provincials and Nationals and is set to compete at Worlds. Despite what may seem like an automatic win, Lamers has posted extremely competitive results and will be a worthy champion and winner of $500, assuming she completes the race in Edmonton.
