In short: A freezing cold day but such a fun time to be had by all
In full: A very challeging race and I am glad I did it as a time. It was cold waiting for my cyclist to finish so I could the last leg of running. But the last leg of running was worth the wait. It was such good fun. An interesting cross country with plenty of surprises including a very deep dyke and lots of hills to keep your interest. Would love to do this again! Excellent goody bag, a medal and sweater. An expensive race but at least the goody bag was worth it.

In short: Soaking wet, covered in mud and freezing cold but what brilliant fun!
In full: Great event superbly organised and marshalled. It was a bit daunting at first surrounded by tri-athletes this being my first duathlon. Great fun even ending up sitting in freezing cold water/mud at the bottom of a dyke!I'll definitely be doing this event again.
