As much as triathletes love to train, nothing matches the thrill of race day.
Moreover, we all remember the joy when COVID finally eased and we could toe the line again – charging through finish chutes, reconnecting with familiar faces, and celebrating the day’s battles.
None of that happens without the officials at TRI‑BC. They’re the ones who travel (often at their expense) to ensure every triathlon is safe and fair.
This week on Fitspeek, we sit down with Greg Christensen, Head Referee for Triathlon BC, for a look at officiating. Additionally, we discuss drafting, penalties, and talk about the sport from a different perspective. And for those who are interested, we dig into what is required to become a TRI-BC official. You might even see your next race a little differently after listening to this one.
