Winchester duathlon in 2:34.43, open water sea swim 1.44mins. Fab Sunday

I changed from the standard distance (10/42/5k run/cycle/run) to sprint (5/20.5/5) as decided it would just take me too long to do the event. I'd be finishing to no spectators and some very bored marshals!

Sprint though was excellent as although I was one of the last to finish the sprint  there were still plenty of athletes out on the course finishing the standard.

Bonkers hills, cross country run. Beautiful beautiful cycle, back to those bonkers hills for the last 5k.

Much whooping at the finish then tea and a twix bar or two.

Unofficial time...
5k = 38.18.96
T1 = 2.34.21
20.5k = 1:05.35
T2 = 3.35.30
5k = 44.39.60 (included quick portaloo stop)
Grand total = 2:34.43

Then off to Bournemouth for some open water swimming. I lasted 1.44mins - so cold although I didn't stay in long enough to be able to describe it! Katherine managed 10.44.24 - she's an epic open water swimmer :)

Fab Sunday.
