Lucy Charles is heading to the Cannes International Triathlon

After a brilliant 2017 season – highlighted of course by that second place finish at the IRONMAN World Championship – Great Britain’s Lucy Charles (www.lucycharles.com) will be racing at the fifth edition of the Polar Cannes International Triathlon on Sunday 29th April, in what looks set to be one of her first races of the 2018 season.

The bike course in Cannes is 107km in length with 1,700m of altitude gain – which given Lucy’s course record setting bike split at IRONMAN Lanzarote 2017, should provide a challenging wary season test which should suit the skills of the über-swimming Brit.
