Defending champion Tyler Butterfield cruised to victory in the Tokio Millennium Re Triathlon this morning.As expected Butterfield, who also won last month’s May 24 Marathon Derby, claimed top honours, finishing in a time of 59 minutes and 37 seconds.Jonathan Herring came second in 1:02.00 finishing ahead of Winter Olympian Tucker Murphy who posted a time of 1:03.25.The course consisted of a 750 metre swim, 20km bike ride and 5km run.In a strange twist to the race, Butterfield was pipped to finish line by his older brother Spencer who was competing in the Corporate Division of the event.Professional triathlete Butterfield, who is sponsored by Tokio Millennium Re, said: "It was a lot of fun out there today, it’s always great to come back and compete at home, giving the sponsors a show as they support me all the time.“Today was hotter than most of the other days this week so it was more about maintaining a steady pace and keeping the body full of electrolytes for hydration and all that good stuff.”When asked about his sibling battle with Spencer during a sprint finish to the race, Butterfield said: “It’s funny because I didn’t know exactly where he was until we were next to each other we both decided to give it a go in the run-in.“Spencer has always been a faster sprinter than me but today I felt it could be done, that the little guy could do what he has never done before and beat the bigger guy. That didn’t happen but it was still great fun nonetheless.”Veteran triathlete Karen Smith claimed the women’s title in a time of 1:07.38. She finished ninth overall.Smith said: “The day was wonderful, I wanted to save some energy for the run because I knew the conditions would be tough. It was getting warmer and I was making sure I had the energy to finish strong and I was able to do that.The Senior Team Male event was won by B&VTeam in a time of 1:00.37. Team Hiscox claimed the female race in 1:22.22, while Madison Digicel won the mixed event (1:02.47).The Try-a-Tri Division race, featuring a 200m swim, 8km bike and 2km run, was won by Calvert Lee who covered the course in 29 minutes and six seconds.In the Schools’ Duathlon, Saltus White (28:29) finished ahead of Saltus Red (30:09) and Bermuda Institute (30:38) for top honours. Berkeley Institute won the Schools’ Triathlon.In the Junior Triathlon Mountain Bike Division, Blake Oliveira posted a time of 21 minutes and 24 seconds, followed by Lindsay Smith who crossed the line in 23 minutes and 27 seconds.Nicholas Pilgrim won the Junior Triathlon in a time of 17 minutes and 13 seconds, while Zion Dowling won the Junior Duathlon finishing in 32 minutes and 17 seconds.
