Island competitor heading to world championship event this weekend
An professional Manx triathlete says it will be a 'great honour' to represent Great Britain and Northern Ireland this weekend.
Will Draper will don the GB jersey in the elite men's race at the Elite World Triathlon Long Distance Championships in Pontevedra, Spain this Saturday and Sunday (28-29 June).
It's been a busy month for the Island Commonwealth Games competitor who also had a wildcard entry into the T100 Triathlon World Tour round in Vancouver, Canada from 13-15 June.
In what will be another different experience for him, Draper told Manx Radio he's not getting hung up on specific objectives in this latest test:
Football: Plans to launch new walking football league
Hockey: 2026 cup finals weekend getting underway tonight
Rugby: Three Island sides involved in season finales this weekend
Football: Weekend heralds first round proper of Hospital Cup & Junior Cup
