The 2015 TEER League has started with Monster Mojo and Dengie Big East Challenge Triathlon.

The 2015 Eastern Region Triathlon League is now underway.  The first two events having taken place over the last two weeks.

The League opened on Sunday 10th May with the Monster Mojo Middle Distance Triathlon where the win was taken out by Martin Edwards of One Tri in 4:01:47 with Lucy Gossage from Cambridge Tri just 11 minutes behind in 4th place to take out the win in a strong ladies field. Full Results.

The second race of the Eastern Region League was the Challenge distance at Dengie Event's Big East Triathlon on Sunday 17th May.  Thomas Davis of Loughborough Tri won the race coving the 800m swim, 43km bike and 10km run in 2:06:16 with Kaat Van Eynde of Glh winning the ladies in 2:38:05. Full Results.

In each of the races the winning man and winning women accumulate 10,000pts with subsequent finishers being points based upon their time in relation to their genders winners time.

By the end of the season the Eastern Region League will have identified the best regional triathlete racing across the regions league fixtures.  An individuals best five positions count to the league with those five comprising two sprint distance, two longer distance events (standard and middle) and then the better of their 3rd sprint or 3rd longer distance results.

With the first two races done, our early leaders are:

• Lucy Gossage, Cambridge Tri Club -  Senior Ladies.
• Joanne Sullivan, East Essex Tri Club - Veteran Ladies.
• John Jacobs, Tri-Anglia - Senior Men
• Jamie Sparrow, King's Lynn Tri Club - Veteran Men.

New for 2015 is the introduction of a Club League where the points from the best two ladies and best three men at an event are added together, then across the season the clubs best five results are added together in the same way as an individuals best five results are identified.

Sixteen of the regions clubs have now earned points, with Tri-Anglia toping the Club League ahead of East Essex Tri, Chalkwell Redcaps and Blackwater Tri.

The league can be viewed here.

Ten more events of the League are still yet to take place, so the above will certainly change, particularly as the regions three championship races each carry an extra 20% point bonus.

The remaining 2015 Eastern Region League Fixtures are:
