Baywatch Wins Big at the JLL Property Triathlon
G&T once again entered the JLL Property Triathlon at Dorney Lake, hoping to beat previous race records following last year鈥檚 success.
The is a well-established sporting event in the industry calendar, bringing together built environment professionals for a day of friendly competition. G&T spirit was in abundance as our teams kitted up to take on the trials of the triathlon - some in more creative outfits than others.
As the race began it was clear the soaring temperatures would make conditions on the day much harder than usual to compete in. Despite the heat, each team member gave their all as they crossed the finish line reaching rest and recovery at G&T鈥檚 corporate tent.
"This year saw almost 3,000 competitors across the various disciplines. It鈥檚 an event where elite athletes are competing alongside those who are just hoping to finish!"Chris Gearey, Partner
A special mention goes to Richard Willing (dressed as Baywatch鈥檚 Pamela Anderson) who won the Men鈥檚 30-39 fancy dress individual triathlon in an impressive time of 1:17:18.
鈥淭he G&T team thoroughly enjoyed the spirit of the competition and look forward to more tough training and success next year.鈥�Gabriel Wright, Project Manager
