Most festivities that surround St. Patricks Day involve green beer, crazy green clothing, and oh did I mention the green beer.
We at Team Triumph choose to drink water and maybe some green Gatorade and wear crazy green clothing while taking part in our Spin Like the Irish Cycling class or our St. Patrick's Day 5km run along the canal while raising funds for a good cause. I think St. Patrick would be proud.
This year we choose to March Forward Toward Mental Health in support of the Vanier Social Pediatric Hub where we raised $150.00 to date.
Having fun + exercise + raising funds made for a great weekend.
Here are some pictures that captured the moments.

A year ago I could only tread water and had not run since childhood. With the amazing Virtual Olympic course, support, guidance, and tips from of all the folks at Team Triumph I've ended the season with my first Olympic distance triathlon under my belt and am hooked! Really looking forward to the 2025 season and even to the hard work over the winter to prepare. Karen Houle
I wanted to let you know that the Perth triathlon was a great experience, I somehow placed third in my age group! What a supportive group of participants (including Team Triumph athletes), cheering bystanders and volunteers.
Thanks to your swim lessons, I learned the technical basics and gained confidence to get back in the pool after decades. And it was really special doing this with Ann Laidlaw, my bestie for many years. We did a couple of additional swims with Kevin and Team Triumph people, also a great way to continue learning and practicing good technical form.
I will continue with lane swimming and who knows, maybe there's another triathlon in my future!
I love the accountability and the structure of the Virtual 70.3 Half Ironman training program. I don't think I would have gotten this far without the program. The accountability is huge for me!
