Round 2 of what appears to be the fastest growing sport on Tiree; we had perfect racing conditions again with the sun shining and just a light breeze to keep the triathletes cool. And again we had a range of tactics in play ranging from an early turnaround on the swim to doing the run in sandals. Well done to all the triathletes. Thanks to Joe and Jackie for doing the timing and thanks Anne for bringing all the food. So the results for round 2 are:

Last weekend I was down in the East Midlands for the Outlaw Triathlon; an Ironman distance triathlon held near Nottingham. It’s a new event which will hopefully become a regular fixture and it follows the traditional Ironman format: 2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike, 26.2 mile run. The event was based at the National Watersports Centre at Holme Pierrepont. There was a great atmosphere and fantastic support from all the spectators. A perfect weekend.
