DARE TO TRI North Canterbury Triathlete Kiri Atkin recently won Bronze at the Wuustwezel Triathlon, in Antwerp, Belgium. This sprint triathlon is part of the Elite Women's European Triathlon Circuit. It was Kiri's first podium finish on the circuit, following up a solid 9th in the Olsztyn Triathlon in Poland in May. Earlier in the year Kiri also picked up a top 10 placing in the Subic Bay triathlon, in the Philipines on the Asian Cup circuit.

The Atkin family has always been active and as a child Kiri was always doing some sort of sport. She remembers doing the Weetbix Tryathlon as an 8 year old but didn't start proper training for triathlon until 2015 at the age of 18. She was a member of the North Canterbury swim club, and still turns out from time to time for the North Canterbury Athletic Club.

Of the three triathlon disciplines Kiri has always favoured running because you can run anywhere with just a pair of trainers. But this year, exploring the roads of Europe has meant more cycling.

A typical training week for Kiri consists of 4-5 swim sessions of between 2 and 6km, 4-5 bike rides on a mixture of hills and flat, including one long ride of up to 4 hours, and 4-5

runs generally shorter but some up to 90minutes. Kiri says most of the training is aerobic and easy going with about 10% at a higher intensity. John Hellemans has had a big influence on her training approach with his extensive knowledge and experience. Kiri has also had the chance to train with NZ Triathlete Andrea Hewitt and has learned a lot from her.

Kiri is a full-time student at Canterbury University in her last year of a Bachelor of Commerce. So any spare time is spent with friends over coffee, or at the beach in the sunshine. She says we are fortunate to have good facilities and quiet roads in North Canterbury for sports and training, but having to travel to Christchurch for some training and Uni is tiring.

Kiri generally travels alone but meets up with other athletes from around the world at events. She remembers her first ever international event in China at 18 years old having never really travelled much before. It was a great experience and she decided if she could travel to China by herself, everywhere else would be easy. This year she has been fortunate to be based in the Netherlands and spent 5 weeks training with the Dutch National team in Sittard. This has worked really well and she would probably look at doing it again.

Kiri says the hardest part about travelling on the European circuit is it is impossible to pack light! Being only 1.6m tall, dragging her bike case and suitcase through airports and on and off trains and buses is tough. The financial costs to being on the circuit, and maintaining gear is hard too.

So she can't always pick and choose the races she wants, but has to select what is within budget.

Her favourite event has been Wuustwezel in Belgium. Not only was it her first elite European podium finish, but she says the atmosphere was great, with people lining the course. It is a small town of triathlon mad people.

We asked Kiri what it was about triathlon that makes her want to keep racing. She says it is that constant feeling of wanting to do better and get the most out of yourself. She said the race can be painful but crossing the finish line knowing your have given it your absolute best is a great feeling.

Her advice for young athletes, you have to enjoy what you do. Try lots of different sports and have fun. Do it because you love it and it makes you happy.

Her next short term goal is to qualify for the NZ team for the World University Triathlon Championships, and the U23 World Championships.

Ultimately the goal is to represent NZ at the Olympic Games but she says there are lots of small goals along the way, and improving her world ranking so she can race in the World Triathlon Series is an important goal.

Kiri wants to thank Ben Winters at Aroma NZ for providing her with product (green lipped mussel supplement) and financial assistance. Also the North Canterbury Sport and Recreation Trust and Mainpower Sports Scholarship. This funding has enabled her to train and compete in Europe and without it she would not have been able to chase her dreams. Kiri was also given the opportunity to train with the Lightworkx Women's Development Cycling Team in the National Calder Stewart Elite Cycling Series, which was great for her development on the bike.

The Futsal Youth Nationals were held in Palmerston North over the weekend. Waimak United had seven representatives in the Canterbury United Futsal Squads.

Luke Supyk and Regan Frame were in the 12th grade boys team. Ella Fong, Maddie Silcock and Jaz Ball were in the 16th grade girls team.

Macey Fraser and Lily Fisher were in the 19th grade girls team. Other North Canterbury players, Adam Supyk (Nomads - 14 boys), Hannah Hegarty (Cashmere Technical - 19 girls) and Sophie Vos (Coastal Spirit - 19 girls), were also in the squads.

The 12 boys started with a big win 7-3 over the Capital development side. In game two the defeated Nelson Bays 9-1, then Capital 2-1 to end the day. On day two they beat Bay of Plenty 5-2 but were beaten by Waikato 1-5. Their final game was a win over Central 3-2 to place Luke and Regan, and the Canterbury United 12's, 4th overall.

The 14 boys also started big in their first game with a 9-1 win over WaiBoP development. Then they defeated Capital 3-2 and had another big win 12-3 over Northern. Their last round robin games were also big wins over Bay of Plenty 10-0, and Victoria from

Austalia 8-2. That put them through to a final against Capital which Adam and team won to take out the National 14's.

The 16 girls enjoyed wins over Central 3-2, and Auckland 6-1.

They then had a draw with WaiBoP 1-1, a 4-2 win over Capital, and finished the round with a 6-4 win over Northern. This put them through to the final against Capital which they unfortunately lost 2-3 meaning Ella, Maddie, and Jaz finished runners up in the 16th girls section.

The U19 girls also went through their round robin matches undefeated with wins over Central 3-2, Auckland 4-1, WaiBoP 8-0, Capital 6-2, and Northern 8-0. In the semi final they defeated Capital again 4-0 to set up a final with last years champions Auckland. It was an absolute thriller with Mainland leading 2-1 until the final minutes when Auckland equalised sending the match into extra time. In the second period of extra time North Canterbury's Macey Fraser completed her hattrick to score the match winner (3-2) and the U19 girls, including Waimak and North Canterbury players Lily Fisher, Sophie Vos, and Hannah Hegarty were National Champions.
