Harlech Triathlon Sunday 7th May

Report by Tim Johns.

If you like beautiful landscapes, this is the triathlon for you! While the rest of you suffered rain in M'cr, we enjoyed a sunny day on the north Wales seaside. A standard pool swim (400m) was followed by 'out & back' bike course (37km) along the coast  taking in Barmouth (candy floss & cheesy sun hats), culminating in a run along the sands at Harlech (6km). If the struggle through the sand dunes wasn't enough for the most talented runners, there was still a 1 in 4 hill to negotiate up to Harlech Castle and the finish. A prize awarded for the fastest ascent!

Definitely one for the calendar in 2007 but get praying for good weather.

As usual, some great performances by the MTC crowd, led by Paul Skipper:
