We're keen to keep the
website updated with club member's results so would like to ask you all to
send in your race results to Jo Hill after the event so we can acknowledge
them! The email address is
j.e.hill@hotmail.com. Please include the race name, distances, your
overall time and finishing position (overall and in your category too would
be great). Thank you very much to those of you that have been sending
regular results but it would be nice to have more to have a full picture of
all the achievements across the club, at all levels. It would be great to
hear from members who are competing in their first triathlon and if anyone
would like to provide a more detailed report on an event this would be
fantastic too.
