We covered the swim starts, the Cycle course (up on the hill), some transition return (just by that turn and the mat), some run course and all the finish line shots - which had two separate cameras (one wideangle with the finish gantry and one close up). So - we should have a few pictures of you to choose from !
Almost 99% of you were caught on the gantry shots and with the help of the results and matching times we have been able to index 100% of the finish gantry shots. However - as you know - we can't read a number on your back with a tri-belt flapping in the wind out on the course without a timing mat to help us, so I urge you all to have a look at the annonymous search results - just use 000 (three zeros) to have a look through them. If you do find a correction - please let us know - use the email link under the preview image to tell us what the caption cataloguing should be.
You all did a great race and it was great to meet up with Steve and his Galeforce event team - it's easy to see how it got world qualifier status. Can't do much about rain in a laptop, but you will be glad to know that the results are now online on the official race website here:

There's a small selection of images below - why not have a look ...
Steve of Galeforce Events and Nigel the MD of Autoglass - your sponsor. He probably beat you too, the swine. He'd beat me. Any cracks and his team instantly will fix them, so I guess he's invincible really.
The start of the green wave, Steve was on the phone to the timekeepers (honest)!
The yellow wave went of well - but busy ! I hovered over the water to bring you this shot
The hill climb was "an intense experience", maybe because of the panoramic views.
Big arm victory wave ? - nope - check the damn watch time !
If you are going to do a big arm victory wave, get on the podium and do it properly - well done 773 - you raised a ton of money for charity !
The ladieez winners
Those cheeky chappies who managed to win...only 10 seconds in it, as usual ?
