  • Completing first Ironman and Middle Distance Tris
  • Achieving a goal of sub 2:30 Olympic distance and a PB

The final race of the ITU world champs was held in Budapest over the weekend and this also culminated in the age group races for the world champs.

After a good couple of months of racing Simon raced in his age group for GB, whilst I am yet to find out overall placing, Simon has managed another PB for the year with a 2:01. Well done on achieving such an amazing time.

Vitruvian Triathlon 2010

The Vitruvian triathlon was held at the beginning of September with a delayed start due to heavy mist on the water. Jackie (with a little coercion or encouragement from me) was on the start line for her very first middle distance race.

Most people face these races with a little bit of in-trepidation and this was no different for Jackie, and has said “The race yesterday was amazing I was so nervous and doubted whether I would be able to do it … I am so chuffed that I did it”. Going by the comment you can tell that Jackie completed the race and achieved her main goal. like most triathletes she is already talking about next year.

The Vitruvian is a great race and one of my personal favourites, well done to Jackie for completing her first and look forward to seeing her on the start line again next year.

Ironman Canada

Ironman Canada was held over the weekend and whilst I am yet to get any race reports, I do know that Tamsin has completed her inaugural Ironman. Well done Tamsin, looking forward to a race report. Well done also to Pete and Andy fellow club mates from Ful-on Tri who also completed the race with great results.

Tamsin has reported that this challenge required her to draw on all of her mental reserves. The run leg showed its dark side and threw a number of obstacles in her way, but they were faced head on with Tamsin finishing under her goal time.
