Weekend Round up 14th July
While many of the Manx Tri Club regulars were away in Bermuda there were still some left to compete in the domestic scene.
Russell Collister was away doing the Cowman National Middle Distance championships and finished 8th in his age group 42nd overall in a time of 4:56:56.
The water temperature was around 21°C and so wetsuits were optional, although the majority of the field still choose to swim suited up.
The British Triathlon Championships was taking place on our doorstep in Liverpool.
The temperature in the dock was 20°C making wetsuits optional. Needless to say the majority opted for the suit.
Gaynor Evans and Wendy Sandford were our only representatives this year. Gaynor was 33rd in the 45-49 age group in 2:38:52 and Wendy was 23rd 40-44 in 2:31:09.
The event will be shown on Channel 4 on 28th July at 7am.
