Hi there,
I hope you managed to have a good weekend of it, either you were at the South of England Champs down the track, or watching Mo burn it up at Gateshead, or even Charlie Grice come second in the 1500m on his international debut (in one of the most wacky races I've ever seen), or perhaps you were glad you too had not gone for the overnight Brutal Enduro (the solo winner did 90k in the time!) and were fresh for the Sundays fun...
Here are the latest galleries that are ready for your shock and awe:
A variety of races on hand for Sunday - from Running, to Triathlon, to Muddy challenge there was something out there for everyone. Even the forecast rain seemed to stay away (I think I had about 20 seconds of rain at Marlow). Here's some shots from the Tri and the mud...
 |
| All go, 7am in the morning |
 |
| Add subconcious "shloopop" sound |
 |
| Swimming can make you have the munchies |
 |
| 280's Mum demonstrates his pedigree in the crossing |
 |
| Even the dog squinted it's eyes in anticipation of being hit - fortunately it didn't |
 |
| With a smart exit out of T1, it was a DQ for no helmet. |
 |
| Getting ready for T1 |
 |
| Martyn on the run from something... |
 |
| All good out of T2 with 5k to go |
 |
| Out of T1? oops forgot the bike |
 |
| Respect to the rules - number on the front - even if it meant wearing his vest backwards. *star* |
 |
| Wave your hands in the air like you don't care |
 |
| Y...mca |
 |
| High five finishing |
 |
| Lions tour hand off to score the try |
 |
| The happy finishing pixie dance. Never seen before. Or ever again. |
 |
| Mums Back !! |
 |
| He almost lost the place because he was fumbling with the watch. Lesson for everyone - don't ! |
 |
| What's this called ? A hamstring ? Surely not... |
 |
| The shared amazement at the finish |
 |
| "You go and do it then if it's so easy" or words to that effect... |
 |
| Commentator, demonstrates how not to look at a watch |
 |
| Martyn gets permission for the prizes |
 |
| The New Trophy Cups went down a treat |
 |
| Correct way to hold a prize trophy and look into the lens |
 |
| Overall winner of the Standard course - Jon Worcester in 2:02:06 |
 |
| Medals galore ! |
 |
| Martyn holding court at the pre-race briefing |
 |
| That look that says "why are you taking our photos at the top of the hill?" "WHY!?" |
 |
| Because of this, we love hills. They bring out your emotion :) |
 |
| Busy up the hill and out of the saddle |
 |
| Ready for the hill descent out of Marlow |
 |
| Tidy and tucked for the aero decent |
 |
| Looking formidablé. |
Meanwhile over on the trenches:
 |
| your hosts for the day |
 |
| faceplant potential, but not |
 |
| excellent high hurdle technique |
 |
| not even knee high water, easy to get through |
 |
| mind the barbed wire |
 |
| Carl enjoyed his time at the spa |
 |
| W for winning |
 |
| technically, left arm should be bent at the elbow more for this hurdle technique to pay dividends |
 |
| Isn't that supposed to be a sandbag ? |
 |
| Made it back ! |
 |
| zap ! |
 |
| Excellent team finish |
 |
| The retro fancy dress look |
 |
| I'm sure it's not that deep |
 |
| the human supermarket checkout conveyor belt game |
 |
| For the finish and the team |
Until next time, when Seb will be doing the typing...
Enjoy the Tennis !
Anthony
