Try a Tri - why not?

Blink and I'll be gone!

Here's the triathlon girl! Vicky has been up for one for a while now and the Llanwrst Sprint Tri fitted the bill nicely. A quick 20 lengths of the pool followed by a 25K bike ride round the Conwy Valley plus a final 5K up into the Gwydir forest and back down to town.

How did this happen?

Llanwrst is a small town of 3000 inhabitants although in it's glory days it was bigger than Cardiff and was famous for it's wool and its harps. The hump backed bridge over the river shows off the beautiful Conwy valley setting. And a fine day it was too. Vicky won the V60 ladies and we thoroughly enjoyed our day out. A late breakfast at La Barrica was followed by an entertaining Triathlon prize presentation where Vicky won a big goody bag of prizes for her achievement. The Gogs are the North Wales triathlon club based in Llandudno and they were very welcoming and Vicky will be doing more of these multi disciplinary thingies. However I shall steer well clear of the water as I normally do.

On the final run in - still smiling!
