C3 teammates are hosting the 2022 C3 Patricia Lopez Memorial Event. Patricia’s car was hit by a truck in Aug of 2020 on the way to a club workout. Patricia had used sport and exercise to alter her body and mind through training with her C3 teammates. Patricia did her first full Ironman in Sept 2019 in Italy. She and her teammates were training for the 2020 Ironman Arizona race when she was killed. Her teammates and her husband Luis Lopez want to keep Patricia’s incredible spirit alive and to help other women use sport as a positive force in their lives. All proceeds to the Patricia Lopez bursary to help women in sports.

Over the years near 15,000 boys and girls of all ages have crossed the finishing line in Caledon and received the same medal Simon got in his first race 30+ years ago. A decade ago, C3 added in the very popular Adult Pool Division. In 2020, C3 will have a prize money race where 14-15, 16-19 and young Canadian elite and development athletes will do two draft legal race at 400m swim - 8km bike - 2km run.

All 14-15, 16-19 and pros will get two races (one in the late morning and a second one in the early afternoon). This is a first for a youth triathlon in Canada. Family members will get a chance to see Canada’s top athletes racing in the Olympic draft-legal format.
