GIVING IT A TRI

Hundreds of people participated in the 2017 Rose City Triathlon during the weekend. Saturday morning athletes dove into the Welland Recreational Canal at Welland International Flatwater Centre. The Give It A Tri section of the triathlon gave new athletes an opportunity to give the race a try. Participants began the race with a 400-metre swim, followed by a 10-kilometre bike ride and finishing the race with a 2.5-kilometre run.
