Buttermere triathlon

You may be wondering what that yellow thing is doing in Buttermere? There were several of them acting as markers for the swimmers.

The competitors have to swim 1.5km in the lake...then cycle 44km on the roads around Buttermere...then run 13km on the fells!

Have you spotted Chloe swimming?

Meanwhile, The Tour of Britain continued down South...today and tomorrow.
