The Victorian Sprint Championships drew an impressive turnout at 2XU Triathlon Series Elwood, with more than a full field capacity of athletes crossing the finish line on Sunday 5 March.
While Luke Bate and Kate Sarris both secured their first wins for the series in the elite races. The excitement and energy were palpable as the top elite athletes pushed themselves to the limit and lead Age Group athletes who displayed their grit and determination, fiercely vying for the highly coveted Victorian Championship medals.
The 750-meter swim, 20-kilometer bike ride, and 5-kilometer run proved to be a challenging test of endurance, strength, and skill, with the competitors pushing themselves to their limits in near perfect conditions to earn their place on the podium.
The Victoria triathlon community eagerly now awaits the upcoming finale of the 2022/23 Victorian State Series.
The highly anticipated last race of the 2XU Triathlon Series, scheduled for Sunday 26 March in St Kilda, will serve as the Victorian Standard Championships and the last opportunity for Triathlon Australia members to secure points towards State Series Awards.
