Race Report W/E 7th July
Coming back from a long weekend in the mountains, and I find that the weekend I am late in reporting on is also somewhat… long! Well, long in racing distances and achievements. Some, on the club Facebook page, might have thought the weekend was all about Roth. In some ways it was. But in many […]
Race Report W/E 30th June
Firstly, apologies for the delay in issuing the Race Report – I’ve been busy with bugs that help recycle rubber. With indoor temperatures still falling, the dust is still settling from a hot weekend of great racing. And what a mix it was: one London League race; 8 triathlons (including 2 Full Ironman events); an […]
Race Report W/E 23rd June
A mostly triathlon focused weekend, with Middle Distance and London League racing going on. Some great race results that go beyond the few glimpses scene on Social media. Immortal Wimbleball Over in Exmoor National Park (a beautiful part of the UK if you haven’t been), Immortal’s latest event, at Wimbleball lake, was being […]
Race Report W/E 16th June
Congratulations to everyone who was out racing this weekend, and over the previous week. With the weather settling into a fairly typical British Summer pattern, there was a mix of rain, wind and sunshine to add some extra zest to the several triathlons, runs, swim and epic cycle adventure that made up the most recent […]
Race Report W/E 9th June
So, a bit of a story of 2 sides this weekend. We had some stellar performances by several of our club. However, somewhat offsetting this was a bit of a poor weekend for hygiene factors such as racing for the club or posting in advance what races our members are doing. A small dip we […]
Race Report W/E 2nd June
A hot weekend, and we managed 5 triathlons and a couple of sportives! Blenheim Triathlon The now regular annual feature of the sprint triathlon races at scenic Blenheim palace was on this weekend. Perhaps not the best value for money race, it is certainly one that rivals most for the setting (including the Castle […]
Racing ETU Champs in my second year of Triathlon – Nicky
Being a tri-club member? Apparently it makes you 2 mins per month faster! Lead up: Last year was my first year of tri training, and I relied very much on self-training, and a few sessions with uni and work friends here and there. Surprisingly though, off the back of that I did manage to somehow […]
Race Report W/E 26th May
A veritable mixed bag of races over the last May Bank Holiday weekend – who said running events were last season! In the mix we had some fantastic London League results, as well as some great triathlon / multisport performances! Total Motion Aquathlon Down in Tooting, in the tropically warm waters of Tooting Bec […]
My first triathlon – Eton Dorney Sprint – Megan Whewell
“Why am I here? What am I doing?!” About 200m into the swim of my first triathlon, those were the only thoughts in my mind. I looked around and realised two things; 1) I’m here because I chose to be, and 2) if I stop now I’ll have to explain to everyone that I […]
Race Report W/E 19th May
Only a week has flown by and we have a bevy of triathlons to report on again. The main event of the weekend was the Club Sprint Champs out at Eton Dorney rowing lake, but we also had middle distances, some mountain racing, and a TT in the mix. Eton Sprints – Club […]
Club Sprints – Eton Dorney – IMPORTANT!!
Hopefully everyone is excited about this Saturday’s first mass club tri of the season! Personally I’m praying the weather holds fair, the traditional Dorney headwind is kind, and I don’t die from lack of training. 1. ARE YOU IN THE RIGHT WAVE?! https://fulontri.club/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/Eton-Sprints-244×270.jpg If your name is in the above start list, and you […]
