JUNE 2020 – Fusion Triathlon Club Challenge

Wow, what a very strange year we have had so far. Motivation lost because lack of training or races being cancelled, missing training colleagues and coaches.  So the committee came up with the idea to see how far, if we put all of our mileage together, how far around the world our triathlon club could actually get to.

Well….BOOM….they definitely took up the challenge!!!!

We asked our members, (this included adults, juniors and our Couch2tri members), if they could add up weekly kilometres in swim (only just allowed to do open water in June in Scotland), bike, run, walk (for those who can’t run, or injured) and also scoot (not to exclude our youngest members).

We certainly didn’t expect anything like the response we got. It started a fire in a lot of folk, including myself, to put out those km to see where we could get to.  I don’t think anyone expected us to achieve  ALL AROUND THE WORLD!!!!

  • Week 1 :- Glasgow > Jabalpur (India)
  • Week 2 :- Jabalpur > Cairns (Australia)
  • Week 3 :- Cairns > Hawaii ……Aloha!
  • Week 4 :- Hawaii > Tenerife
  • 29th & 30th :- Tenerife > Glasgow

We even had enough extra km to head to Luxembourg and back to Glasgow.

TOTAL KM :- 41,764.32

Massive well done Fusion Triathlon Club !!
