Confessions of an I.T.A.
Written by Jon Moseling Earlier in the week, I’d just got back from South Africa, having had a chance to reflect on an eventful Ironman. Given that some of the club are about to do their first long distance race this year (for the most part in Austria), it may be that some of my […]
Race Results w/e 22 April
By Heather Mayer In typical English fashion, the fact that the sun was shining all week last week was met with over-enthusiastic early morning trips to Richmond Park, people baring all their skin and competing for Best Lobster, and finally complaints that it was just too hot really. The sudden change from deep winter to […]
Race Results w/e 15 April
Written by Heather Mayer Apparently the sun was out this weekend, although unfortunately I missed it by traveling across the pond to Boston where I got to watch some people throw tea over the side of a boat and to go to a marathon expo without having to run a marathon. Fortunately, the good weather […]
Club Championship Races & End-of-Season Honours
by Heather Mayer Ful-on Tri has often been described as the friendliest triathlon club in London, and we do take real pride in being a social club with a triathlon problem. Nevertheless, we can take our triathlon problem seriously when we want to, and as such each season we put on three club races as […]
Race Results w/e 8 April
Written by Heather Mayer Wow, what a weekend of racing! Maybe we were inspired by the Commonwealth Games, maybe it was the Hell of the North that got us going, or maybe we just got a bit of spring fever after seeing the sun for the first time in weeks on Thursday and Friday, but […]
From Couch to Half Ironman
By Martin Bruwer May 21st 2017, St Pölten, Austria. A day and a week, that I will always remember, the culmination of one journey and the start of another. Eighteen months ago I made a decision to get in shape and tick off an item on my bucket list at the same time, I decided […]
Race Results w/e 1 April
Written by Heather Mayer Hope you all had a lovely long weekend, full of lots of chocolate, if somewhat lacking in sunshine. The weather this weekend yet again threw a spanner into the works for any of us, scuppering the annual Good Friday Brighton ride, as well as an early season triathlon on Sunday. Nevertheless, […]
Race Results w/e 25th March
Following last weekend’s white out, Ful-on Tri was back out in force this weekend embracing the less abysmal weather. Ursula Hankinson stormed through the Cranleigh 21 with impressive speed as part of her London Marathon prep. Unfortunately there are no photos of this achievement, as head supporter Xavier Faux Pas missed the finish while trying […]
Race Results w/e 18th March
Written by Heather Mayer Despite the beautiful, sunny, Spring-like days we had last week, this weekend saw winter rear its head once more, blanketing the land in a layer of fluffy white stuff. Unfortunately, this meant that a fair few races were cancelled or postponed, disappointing many of us who were looking forward to some […]
Race Results w/e 11th March
Written by Heather Mayer As I sit here recovering from a pastel de nata filled weekend (it’s an excellent pre-race food!), looking out at the grey sky signalling the very best of English weather, I’m amazed that we’ve made it to March. It’s that time of year when the light is hanging in the sky […]
Race Results w/e 4 March
By Heather Mayer Welcome back to all our Lanzarote friends. I will admit to having been rather jealous as I looked on my Strava/Instagram/Facebook feeds last week to find photos of the sun and see evidence of long rides that didn’t involve wearing 500 layers. I hope you’ve all had a great week, and I […]
Race Results w/e 25th Feb
Written by: Heather Mayer As winter has returned in earnest, sending Spring scurrying back into its hole along with Punxsutawney Phil, this weekend saw a few of our club mates don their running shoes for some impressive racing. On Saturday, James Ellis ventured up to north London to race at the English Cross Country National […]
