Triathlon over 400 metre swim, 10 mile cycle, 3.5 mile run, duathlon over 1 mile run, 10 mile cycle, 3.5 mile run.
Experience certainly counted at Leicester Triathlon Club's Flashman Triathlon & Duathlon as veteran athletes dominated the races held at Lutterworth Grammar School. The return of the popular event after a year's absence due to road adaptations saw the largest ever field with the Triathlon heavily oversubscribed.
In ideal racing conditions veterans Mick Stevens (48:33) and Lynn Green (56:12) won the duathlon with Les Hewitson (49:00) and Jane Wyncoll (66:54) taking the runner up spots. In his second race Callum Render found the course more to his liking than in his debut at Swindon and won the junior's race (59:31).
A leak at the swimming pool in the week before the race and temporary traffic lights on the course had organisers sweating but everything came together for the triathlon, which featured a new cycle course. A faster swim and cycle enabled veteran Leyshon Williams (52:33) to hold off a strong running Stuart Power (53:17) with Matt Thompson recovering from a slower swim to take third place (54:40). Wesley Bond was first male junior building on a strong swim (60:48).
In the female race Rosalind Rae (63:25) stopped the veterans from having a clean sweep. Despite a faster cycle second placed Sally Wagstaff (64:19) could not make up the deficit from the swim. Louise Oliver (67:15) showed consistency in all three disciplines to take the veteran's prize with local athlete Grace Watson winning the junior race (70:59).
Funding through the Awards for All programme enabled the organisers to provide training workshops and discount entries for novice athletes and this was successful in encouraging 67 competitors to have their first go at triathlon or duathlon. Also encouraging was an increase in the number of female athletes who filled 50 out of the 168 places. Further information from Graeme Hornsby ()
