Dalby Triathlon

The 26th of February saw the running of the annual Dalby triathlon. It was great to see many Team Dalby members taking part and for many of them it was their first Triathlon experience. The kids started off the day bright and early with their Triathlon and local boy Ben Cullen came away with 2nd in his division and local emerging star Claudia Cramer took out her division. The Business House Challenge was a tight contest with Dalby State High taking the honours, Sandalwood Feedlot second and 'The Style Council' coming in a close third - well done to Gary (ride) and Danny (Run)on a superb effort. The teams comp was also a hotly contested field, a Toowoomba team stole the win away in the womens division from our very own Katrina Cullen led team who placed 2nd, Dalby Teams also finished 3rd, 4th and 5th. The mixed team event was a family affair with Katrina Walton (swim), Danny Nearhos (ride) and Nev Walton (run) taking the honours - Well Done Danny for backing up after the BHC run. The individuals went out amongst the teams and came home very strongly, our first female home was Bianca Daniels and first male Simon Doyle.Tony Nolan had an awesome race notching up a PB and Luke Rowney took out the Greg McVeigh Memorial Trophy for the fastest bike leg by a local competitor. Other strong performances put in by John Cullen, The Captain, Sue Cramer, Belinda Rowney, Tab Lloyd-Jones, Lyn Cuskelly, Charlene Hall, Rachele Cumming, Ruth Johnston, Jane Leggett, Hosko and Johno.
