GRAAFF-REINET NEWS - Three Union biathletes travelled to Port Elizabeth on Saturday 31 August, to compete in the first league event of the season.
Newcomers to the sport Mecoli Vorster and Luc Railton competed for the first time and acquitted themselves well. Brigette Oelofsen was sadly unable to complete the run due to a recurring knee injury.
“All three competitors did surprisingly well in the swim portion of the event, despite the long layoff over the winter season,” said Union spokesperson Mariëtte Burger.
“They are looking forward to improving both their swim and run times in the next league event, which is to be held this coming weekend, Saturday 7 September.”
