    About 220 pupils took part in Sport Otago’s second virtual triathlon challenge held at Forsyth Barr Stadium.

    The event was held for businesses last year and opened up to pupils this year since many other events were cancelled due to Covid-19 restrictions.

    Phoebe Wellstead (17) clocks up 3km on the bike.

    Pupils mostly took part on Monday and Tuesday, and businesses started yesterday and will continue today.
