Swimming in a black 2XU C2 wetsuit, with green stripes.
Riding a Boardman Team Carbon, clip on aeros, skeleton shirt.
Registering 3pm'ish Friday. Aiming for 6:00 bus Saturday.
See you all then, and good luck.
Hoping to be over to register about 4pm, work depending - then take the bike over to the lake and back again before 6 to put the tent up. Ahh the Joys of Triathlon
Was good to meet you Scott and great result
Unfortunately didnt meet any of the other 220ers - but would love to here your results / reports. I managed a 6hr 25mins with a difficult run and am very pleased
I finished in a similar time (6hrs 15mins) so we probably passed each other along the way. I had been warned about the hills but still found them very tough - could have done with at least 1 lower gear on my bike.
When I got there on the Fri the organisation all seemed to be a bit 'last minute'; however, on the day everything went well and I found the support/helpers/marshalls really cheered me along. The event was very low key and relaxed and as my first middle distance event it was ideal and I would recommend it to anyone in the same position - the hype of an Ironman may have caused me to go off too fast and blow the whole race.
As a learning exercise it has really proved its worth and I am now looking forward in IMCH next year. The LW was a bit of a reality check as far as hills are concerned so my winter training plan will need a review, but apart from that I think I actually enjoyed the thing!
So who is doing the Big Woody next year ???
I shouldn't actaully say this out loud should I?
