Triathion means added
preparation for runner

NORTH VANCOUVER | runner
Vicki Swan expected to finish the
Vancouver Internationa! Triathlon
just before noon today, marking
another athletic achievement in her
three-year running career.

While she may finish well behind
the top athletes, the insulin-depen-
dent diabetic is not worried about
coming in first, she will be happy
just to finish her 12-kilometre por-
tion of the event in a respectable
time.

Joined by two other racers with
insulin-dependent diabetes, Swan

Canada
loses by
one match

CANADA CAME out a loser by a
Mere one match when it took on
The Rest of the World at a West
Vancouver Lawn Bowling Club
competition recently.

India-born Dave Fairweather led
the 13 The Rest of the World rinks
to victory over Canada’s 13 rinks,
which were under the direction of
Frank Skinner.

“It was very close, a really even
match,’’ The Rest of the World
player Brian Arcnold-Jenkins said
of the competition, hoped to
become an annual event.

Players taking on Canada were
born in a host of countries, in-
cluding the United States, India,
Poland, Jamaica, South Africa
and Great Britain.

Organizers expect to see Canada
challenge The Rest of the World
when the competition enters a se-
cond year on the B.C. Day holiday
in 1989,

nual event.

As weil as runner Swan, swimm-

Banks, 38, of Surrey; cycling will
be Janet Waterston, 26, of Van-

“I don’t think being diabetic is
any reason not to do it,” said
Swan, whose training routine in-
volves monitoring of blood sugar,
insulin levels and sugar intake.
“You take precautions...and go
for it.’’

Diagnosed as diabetic when she
was three years old, Swan, 26, has
been running for three years and

finished this spring’s Vancouver
Marathon.

While running she carries an
orange with her to bolster lagging
blood sugar, and carefully coordi-
nates her running with time of day
and eating habits.

‘‘The spontaneity of ‘Let’s go
for a run’ just isn’t there,’’ ex-
plains the triathlon newcomer. ‘‘T
can do it but I take the chance of
getting a few miles out, feeling re-
ally tired and having to go back.”’

Last summer, diabetic Greg
Corry of Victoria proudly joined
the ranks of finishers who com-
pleted the gruelling Ironman
Triathlon in Penticton.
