Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>The Germiston Lake was a hub of activity as athletes eagerly awaited their heats, while families and supporters cheered on the competing athletes as they moved through the race\u2019s swim, cycle route and run.<\/p><div class=\"stream-item stream-item-in-post stream-item-inline-post aligncenter\"><\/div>\n<p>The action-packed day was broken into several sections, one of which was the junior 12 to 17 years old division, where Jonathan Morrison came in first in a time of 37 minutes and 23 seconds for the boys, followed by Casey Bosman in first for the girls with a time of 40
