Hello readers, the first race report of August begins with a fantastic first place female for Michelle Scott in the Gr8events Sprint Triathlon that was held on the 6th. She finished the race in a time of 1:18:14, 13th overall. The race shared the same route and start time with the Aquacycle competition, which two of our members participated in. Andrew Sedgwick, getting wet for the first time this year, finished 6th overall in a time of 1:32:37, while Tracey Warrior crossed the line in a time of 1:43:58, 9th position overall. The following day in Allerthorpe, two of our members competed in the Allerthorpe Classic Triathlon, a standard distance but in challenging conditions. But gusts of wind of over 20mph and 23 degrees of heat didn’t stop Nicola Darragh finishing in a time of 2:43:59, 157th overall, or Penny Johnson finishing in a time of 2:45:53, 169th overall. Penny was more than happy with her result, as she managed a PB and was 3rd in her age category.
