On Sunday Bala hosted a series of Triathlon events.
John Palmer, a resident of Llangollen, took part in the Sprint Triathlon.
At 79 he was one of the oldest participants. It involved a 750m swim in Bala Lake, followed by a 20 km bike ride on the road past Llanuwllyn and back to Bala finishing with a 5 km run. John completed the event in 1hr and 57 minutes coming second in his age group.
John was taking part to raise money for the Friends of Llangollen Health Centre.
The Friends is a charity the funds projects that relieve sickness and preserve and protect good health amongst residents in the catchment area of Llangollen Health Centre, Llangollen and Glyn Ceiriog.
