Tri Lakeland Juniors – Cockermouth Junior Triathlon

On Sunday 17 June 2012 eight swimmers from Carlisle Aquatics independently entered the ‘Tri Lakeland Juniors – Cockermouth Junior Triathlon’, which consisted of swimming, cycling and running over different distances depending on their age/event.


This was held at Netherhall Sports Centre, Maryport. Despite a wet Friday and Saturday the weather dried up on Sunday providing excellent conditions. For most this was their first ever triathlon and everyone seemed to enjoy the event and the results were as follows:
