A STRONG entry of participants took to the starting line to compete in Bude's increasingly popular Shoreline Triathlon last weekend. The event has been hosted in the town every summer since 1991 and has always been extremely well supported, with a cross section of beginners, first time triathletes and national athletes taking on the challenge provided by the stunning North Cornwall setting each year.
