LSC Past & Present Biathle stars

Biathle (aka Swim/Run/Swim) is a back to back biathlon event where competitors complete in effect 3 races in 1. Distances vary with the age of the competitor with the events tending to be sprints rather than endurance based.

LSC has a strong tradition in this form of racing and Sophie Storey (NDS) is carrying it forward for the younger members of the club.

Sophie performed brilliantly to come 1st in the regional schools SE event and a fantastic fourth place in the National final. Modest Sophie never said much about this but we managed to tease it out of Dad Paul! A quick search on the Modern Pentathlon website confirmed the results!
