On Sunday dad took me & Ellie to the Kenilworth Aquathlon. When we arrived we met Noah & we all registered together. It was quite a good pool (25 metres) & really easy to get ready. Noah went first in Tristar 3 & then Ellie in Tristar 2. I was in Tristart & we went […]
On Saturday 21st of May, I competed in the chapel Aquathlon. We had quite a long drive down to Southampton. The pool was different to Brackley as it was only 20 meters long. For TS2 it was 13 lengths, so the swim was 260 meters, not 200 meters, which was a bit different. My swim […]
This week (15 May 2022) I travelled to Crystal Palace to compete in one of the London Regional Qualifying events for the IRC. There were 63 athletes in the TS3 category many of which had previously qualified and raced for the South East and London regions. I felt excited as I had never raced this […]
Today we travelled to Wombourne to do an Aquathlon. I had to swim 300m and run 3km. We ran on an old train track for 2.4km and then ran back to the finish. I feel like I could have swam faster to close up the gap between me and the other people who started ahead […]

This was Noah’s first race of the session, having had to pull out of two races due to a fractured wrist caused by saving a goal on Easter Sunday! And was also his first TS3 race. It was a very small event and it took us over one & half hours to get there […]

This was the first local triathlon of the year with thirteen Beachborough and Brackley triathletes taking part. It was the first time we had raced for some, and all were feeling nervous. We all arrived early to walk the course together and help settle our nerves before we racked our bikes and put on our […]
