Saturday was one of the prettiest days we have had in Wilmington which made the athletes happy that were racing in the big BEACH2BATTLESHIP Triathlon. If you were outside yesterday in the Wilmington area, it was inevitable that you would see someone participating in the race. The race started with a 2.4 mile swim in Banks Channel at Wrightsville Beach. After that came a 112 mile bike ride from Wrightsville Beach to White Lake and back to the Battleship. The last leg was a 26 mile run that started and ended at the Battleship. These athletes are incredible to have the stamina needed for this type of race. There were athletes competing from all over the world and Wilmington residents could be seen cheering them on. The first place men’s winner is from Denmark and the first place woman is from Winston Salem, NC.
