Lymm Sprint Triathlon 2009

The first tri of the year for me and as it was close decided to do Lymm as a warm up. Can't stand pool swims but needs must this early in the season, not being the best swimmer when I haven't got a wetsuit on does make a difference !! As proved by Chris taking 2 minutes out of me in 500 metres !!

Results are here

Result for me was 6th.

5 Christian Preece Male 0:07:42 0:46:35 0:17:14 1:13:14
6 Nick Rose Male 0:08:34 0:44:42 0:19:37 1:14:41

Overall I thought the event was well run, its a small town/village and there seemed to be a good amount of advertising on the web from the local community, the marshalls were very helpful, if sometimes a little preoccupied lol !! huddled down out of the wind on one of the junctions made me laugh. Results out pretty quickly and the attitude of the organisors very good for a beginners triathlon, very friendly, would recommend.
