On August 7th/8th, the Worlds' largest triathlon took place for the 14th time: the London Triathlon. While London is getting ready for the Olympics in 2012, the triathlon in the UK capital is getting bigger and bigger each year. This year, more than 13.000 athletes were swimming, cycling and running in the event across two days. Not all were seasoned triathletes: more than 4.000 of them were competing for the first time of their lives.

MYLAPS provided the timing equipment so that all athletes could not only trust on having their finish timed, but also their laps and transitions between swimming, cycling and running. The MYLAPS ChampionChip chips are very durable and can withstand the water during swimming, made it the perfect solution for timing this world class event. These chips made sure that the athletes got all their times and rankings they have trained for so hard!
