Over 20 competitors took part in the annual Kirkwall triathlon in warm but breezy conditions.  With over half the field from mainland Scotland clubs, it was a competitive race.  The race was won for the men by Mark Harrison, closely followed by Angus Peden from the Ayrodynamic Triathlon Club.  The womens race was won by Orkney’s Kirsty Murray in 2:26:29.  Many of today’s participants were taking part at this distance for the first time.  Click on the link below for results:
