When Brendon Lodge took part in Tremains Corporate Triathalon as a teenager, he had no idea he would end up organising it, 17 years on.
The annual event, which took place yesterday at The Esplanade Domain in Westshore, was a great success with participation well up on 2012.
"Last yearwe had 367 teams, this time we were well over 400. I think a lot of people realise it's not only a business networking opportunity but a great team building exercise," he said.
"Several businesses doubled their entries on last year."
Teams were required to complete a 600m swim or 1700m kayak, 5km run or walk and a 20km bike ride.
