Ben Kanute, Flora Duffy lead Day 1 - Island House Tri

After the morning Super sprint Individual Time Trial and the afternoon Sprint Enduro legs, Ben Kanute of the U.S. and two-time ITU Olympic distance WTS World Champion Flora Duffy of Bermuda led the men’s and women's fields in the Island House Invitational Triathlon in Highbourne Cay on Bermuda.

Kanute is followed by Terenzo Bozzone of New Zealand (+11 seconds), Henri Schoeman of South Africa (+47 seconds), Aaron Royle of Australia (+50 seconds), and Cam Dye of the U.S. (+1 minute). Last year’s Island House men’s overall winner Richard Murray of South Africa finished the day in 9th place (+2 minutes).

Unfortunately, Island House has not yet provided women's Day One overall times and splits but they did list the order of finish. Duffy finished the day ahead of Katie Zaferes of the U.S., Holly Lawrence of Great Britain, Kristen Kasper of the U.S. and 2017 WTS Championship runner-up Ashleigh Gentle of Australia.

The 14 men and 15 women finished today will be competing for the top shares of the $500,000 purse which will be awarded after Saturday’s Sprint pursuit finale – a 750 meter swim, 20 kilometer bike leg and 5 kilometer run.

Due to the communications difficulties on the remote Highbourne Cay race site, the final times and splits of the Day One races for women are not yet available. Only the order of the finishers of the combined legs are currently listed but should be updated later today.

The total times and splits of the morning Super sprint and Individual Time Trial are available and will be included at the end of the results.
