The date is set for next years event; it’s the early May Bank Holiday which means the 10k event will be on Saturday 30th April 2011. This is earlier than usual due to hall bookings. Last April the weather was stunning with lots of sunshine and amazing visibility out to the distant islands.

Sprint distance means a 750m swim, 20km bike, and then a 5km run. Add to this some killer hills and you have a grueling event. Taking on this challenge was Tiree’s Joe Kavanagh, who opted to join the seasoned triathletes in the main event rather than the friendlier ‘come and tri’ event. In at the deep end. Literally. Joe’s swim was excellent, his technique was solid and never faltered. He looked strong right to the end and exited the pool looking focused ready for T1. Now we practiced Joe’s transitions in my gym and got it down to under a minute; with the theme tune to Superman on in the background it was quite a sight for the neighbours.
