4th May – Paphos Triathlon
This annual event is organised by Activate Cyprus and always attracts a great deal of interest, not least because it includes the Cyprus Triathlon Championships at the very competitive Olympic distance of 1500 metre swim, 40km bike ride and 10km run. There is also a very popular supporting Sprint (half-distance) event so all abilities are catered for.
With a total of around 250 competitors, 18 of whom were representing Paphos Running Club, we had a field day with our best-ever performance since we first took part in this classic event 9 years ago.
Of the 18 PRC members taking part, 14 of us made it onto the podium, including 2 outright relay team wins in both the men’s and lady’s sprint event, a second place in the mixed team category and a further third place in the men’s team category.
Our six athletes in the Olympic distance event were all solo performers covering all three disciplines, with experienced triathletes Carla Poole and Demetrious Kalli both delivering impressively slick performances to win their respective age groups, whilst Janet Sutherland, Beverly Kalli, Patrik Rodwell and Maggie Norgate all finished in very respectable times, gaining valuable experience at this distance for next time!
4th May – Paphos Path Run
Strength in depth has been the key to our club’s continued success and on the same day at the same time as we were winning honours in the Paphos Triathlon, less than 500 metres away we were hosting, marshalling and timekeeping our 49th FREE 5km run along the Coastal Path.
Calm conditions had no doubt influenced the 90 or so participants to come along, yet even with several of our top runners involved with the triathlon or away on holiday, we still managed 5 age group wins!
Don’t miss our next Paphos Path Run 8am 1st June
Note this will be our 50th event since 5th July 2020
