With injury and mojo ravaging the club Mark continued his lone furrow in pursuit of the perfect year in triathlon... in his own words...
"...I entered Cascades Pool in my new Orca top and shorts which all the kids thought looked absolutely .....................gay!!
Must be the muffin top.
65th overall and 22nd in veterans 40-50 is a bit dissapointing especially in the new kit. Was kind of hoping for a top 50 spot but there was some serious bikes on display with a few GB outfits that looked better than mine.
Splits are deceiving as they include transitions, at least I hope so otherwise my swimming has gone backwards. A decent walk/run from pool to transition and the timing chip only sounded on way out on bike.
Traffic lights were a pain on ride as I hit a red light on way back but received 30 second deduction from time. Run time has improved but maybe the distance was wrong.
Gloucester next, a top 50 is target..."
Result 65th in 01:12:19 out of 173 finishers.
