Leeds children give triathlons a tri
Year 6 pupils from Ninelands Primary, Strawberry Fields Primary, East Garforth Academy, Green Lane Academy, St. Benedict’s Primary and Thorner Primary started with a 150m swim at Kippax Leisure Centre then biked along The Lines Way into Garforth, before finishing with a mile run around St. Benedict’s Primary School’s mile running track.
They were joined by local police, Cycle Leeds, Active Leeds and Leeds Travelwise.
The week beforehand, children took part in a training session at the Brownlee Triathlon Centre, where they met elite triathlete Alex Yee.
