Members take part in Mid Argyll Triathlon

Toby, Rosie, Liz, Garret and Fee took part in this local event last Sunday. The weather was lousy but spirits high for the 10th anniversary event. With all of us in different heats except Liz and Fee it was difficult to keep track! Rosie was first away from the pool but unfortunately had a fall from her bike within about a mile or so, she was patched up and amazingly set out again to complete the cycle amongst much admiration, very cold and tired by then she withdrew from the run. Toby despite being baulked in the swim put in a great performance with a time of 1:16:39, definitely beating his Dad this year who did a stalwart time of 1:22:42. Liz was the star of the day coming in at 1:27:07 and scooting third female veteran, second Mid Argyll female finisher and fastest T2 transition of 16s!! Fee was over the line in 1:31;02 and happy to be home! Well done all!




Last nights session was a good one with a new 4 minute killer session that will be reappearing and some Squats, Skips and Steps...ahhhh the winter is here!! I shall not be here for the next three Thursdays but the group will be meeting as usual. No time to relax yet...Below is a message from Kirsty re The Tin Farm Five

Hi All

Well it's that time of year again folks! The summer has fled, winter is on its way and we're all looking for something that will keep us motivated to get out train as the nights get darker and those runs become cold and wet.  I have just the thing for you!  Get yourselves along to Ormsary Estate on November the 6th, for the 5th annual Tin Farm 5.   If you are interested in a 5ish mile run through woodlands and over beaches then please send the attached entry form with you entry fee (made payable to 'Tin Farm 5') to me at the address below.

Dinah and I would like to take this opportunity to once again thank, as ever Sir William and Lady Lithgow for their continued support of the event and allowing us to make use of their beautiful estate.  We have 70 entries available for this years race so get your entry in early to avoid disappointment as there will be no entries on the day. We look forward to seeing you on the 6th November for a great days racing.
