2024 Asia Triathlon Cup Lianyungang,
Jonathan Oakey continued to show form at the 2024 Asia Triathlon Cup Lianyungang, China, this weekend.
Similar to the previous weekend in Taizhou, Oakey produced one of the fastest swims of the race over the two lap beach start course to cement his position in the lead bike pack as the athletes took to the bike.
The four lap course featured 11km of undulating coast roads and a number of technical corners. The race saw a sizeable group come into T2 together to battle it out on the 10km run course in 35°C heat. With little over 30 seconds separating the athletes who crossed the finish line between 5th and 10th, Oakey produced a strong 33:40 10km in hot conditions to finish 10th overall.
The result sees him climb another 33 places in the World Triathlon Rankings to 210 overall.
