Monday morning on the banks of the River Seine saw Frenchman Jules Ribstein take the volume up to 11 as he delivered a supreme golden performance to become the Paris 2024 Paralympic Triathlon Champion.
Out of the water right with USA’s Mark Barr and Wim de Paepe of Belgium, there was nobody who could get close to him on the bike, even the flying Dutchman Maurits Morsink too far back out of the water to make a meaningful dent on his lead.
With Ribstein too far to be caught, it was another American, Mohamed Lahna, out of transition two on a mission to catch de Paepe, reeling him in along with compatriot Mark Barr. Bronze medallist at Rio 2016, Lahna was able to go one better this time around and secured the silver, crossing the line just 15 seconds after Lahna.
