LEEDS revelled in its status as host city for the two-day Columbia Threadneedle World Triathlon stage.

Excited supporters lined the streets from Roundhay to the city centre, keen to catch a glimpse of friends or family members taking part in the amateur race, to cheer on the elite women’s racers, or home town heroes the Brownlee brothers competing in the elite event.
