Erica Hawley competed in the 2014 Quarteira ETU Triathlon Junior European Cup in Portugal.
Hawley finished 58th in 1:15:34 which is well off her best time.
It was a tough course and the weather was windy and cold. Hawley had a terrible beach start swim and really the race did not go very well after that.
A learning experience for sure and she has debriefed the race already and has a good training plan and focus for the next 3 weeks before the Youth Olympic Games Qualifier.
Hawley recorded a time of 11:23 during the Swim, 37:56 on the Bike Course and 24:01 on the Run Course.
