Оба отделались легким испугом.
Update: Говорят, ссылка не работает (нужна регистрация?), но вот все, что там про это написано:
Competitor Sabrina Oei, of Denver, flipped over her bike and skidded along the road on her shoulders and back after hitting a black bear she and witnesses estimated to weigh 550 pounds. Oei — who was going about 35 miles per hour — said she slammed on her brakes when she was 10 feet away from the bear.
"He was just sauntering out in the road, taking his time. I had no time to stop," she said Sunday night after the race.
The bear continued into a wooded area near the course, and Oei finished the triathlon, biking for another 20 kilometers before completing the running portion of the race.
