UW Duathlon Mass Start Time Trial

Recently the University of Waterloo held its semi-annual fall run-rollerski duathlon. Staged on a beautiful Saturday morning, the duathlon was designed to test the athletes running, rollerskiing and putting-on-boots-under-pressure abilities. The order of events was a 6 km out-and-back run over a quite hilly course followed by a hectic transition to rollerskis for a further 6km.

Results have been made official at this time, and are as follows:

Name Run Transition Ski Total
Nolan Beanlands 23:58 1:22 20:59 46:05
Andrew Jeffrey 24:11 1:41 21:15 47:07
Tim Rhodes 24:31 0:35 22:44 48:13
Colin Rhodes 25:39 0:52 25:00 51:31
Ryan McNamara 26:31 1:44 24:17 52:32
Heather Foley 34:13 0:57 22:40 57:50
Alison Stephenson 31:48 1:42 25:10 58:40
Derek Hartman 25:52 - - -

 

As per usual with anything involving rollerskiis, there is a disclaimer about ski speed. Various speeds exist, so results contain a measure of inaccuracy.

Injury Update:

Martha Sutton – Week to week with a lower body injury

Kieran Jones – Day to day with a core strain
