Dubai Siblings Set New World Record For Triathlon
Siblings Tia and Rio, members of the Dubai family known as TeamAngelWolf, have achieved a remarkable feat by setting a new Guinness World Record.
Together, they have set the record for the ‘fastest time to complete an Olympic distance triathlon while carrying another person.’
While 20-year-old Rio is a person of determination, his 16-year-old sister Tia, who carried her brother in this multisport race, attributes their achievement largely to the latter’s encouragement.
Tia achieved the feat of finishing the race by swimming 1.5 kilometres while pulling Rio in a kayak, cycling 50 kilometres on a specially designed bike with Rio seated in the front, and ultimately running 10 kilometres while pushing Rio in a running chair.
Their combined efforts resulted in completing the race in a remarkable time of 3 hours, 39 minutes, and 37 seconds, which is an impressive five minutes faster than the Guinness World Record threshold of 3 hours and 45 minutes.
Although they had participated in the triathlon in the month of March in Dubai, they had to wait for a while, to hear about the outcome from Guinness.
