Great Showing at 3rd Escape the Cape

Strong Showing by BCTC at Escape the Cape!

A stormy start to the day, turned out bright for the BCTC.  We had 10 athletes compete in the International event and 9 more compete in the Sprint event  The start was delayed due to a thunderstorm and everyone got drenched, but by the time the first swimmers made the leap off of the ferry, the sun was shining bright and hot.  Wet roads made the bike portion of the event a bit more challenging and this year’s run course, included a second loop on the soft sand, including 2 dune climbs for added excitement, (thanks Delmo!).  The BCTC tent was a welcome respite from the heat after the race.  Many thanks to Sue Graf who captained our team and hosted the team dinner Saturday night at the Inn of Cape May.  Sue, Shari Weston and Brian Jones all served as volunteers, supporting all the athletes.
