Francesc Godoy and Marta Tello winners in the Canet d'En Berenguer triathlon

Yesterday, Canet d'En Berenguer held the II Racó de Mar Camp de Morvedre Olympic Triathlon, which brought together 450 participants from all over Spain and especially from the Valencian Community, since the event was valid for the regional club league.

The Ironmad Tri company was in charge of organizing this event, which installed its operations center in the Fishermen's Square on the seafront. In that area you could see the spectacular transitions between the sectors, which opened with 1.500 meters of swimming, continued with 40 kilometers of cycling and ended with 10 kilometers on foot.

The enthusiasm of the large public marked the development of the race, in which Francesc Godoy (CN Barcelona) won, who dominated the three sectors in a total time of 1 hour, 53 minutes and 48 seconds. The winner, in very good shape, broke the race in the second lap of the swimming circuit, where he distanced himself from Llobet. In a very fast cycling sector he set a brutal pace, further distancing himself from his pursuer. His average in the 40km was over 42km/hour, alone!

Xavi for his part had a great race, although he was physically somewhat impaired due to the fall on his bike suffered last week. The third classified was Emilio Aguayo Muñoz. In females, the winner was Marta Tello Varea from CT A Corre-Huita.

In the female category, Marta Tello (CT a Corre Cuita) was the fastest with 2 hours and 21 minutes, followed by Nuria Castells (Suheca.com) and Marta Ferrer (CTH Picassent). Among the local participants, the best was Joaquín Catalá (CT Villareal) on a podium completed by Chema Saya and David Llueca.

Despite the heavy rain the previous night, the test took place without major setbacks, apart from some falls in the cycling sector such as the one suffered by Carlos Espinosa, who was transferred to the Sagunto Hospital with a broken collarbone.
