National Team Relays

Mental! A day of total racing chaos but great fun. Rob started us off with a good swim, followed by Andy, Neil and then me - to provide the sprint finish on the run - haha!

Seaford Classoc

My first Olympic distance race. The sea swim was cut short due to the choppy conditions; I felt pretty sick getting out of the water. The run up the stony beach to T1 hurt like hell. Didn’t enjoy the bike much - 12 laps of an out and back loop, plus it was windy. The results show I didn’t move up the field at all on the bike which is unusual. The run went better.

Overall result: 02:22:35 (60th out of 169)

Swim (750m): 18:13 (71th, +T1)

Bike (40k): 01:18:47 (71th)

Run (10k): 45:35 (32nd, +T2)
