Hillingdon duathlon (draft legal)
My 3rd victory in a row! Ok, it was a small field but classy nonetheless with Kiwi Clinton Thomas and supa time trialist and tasty triathlete Mark Edwards comprising the podium. Bit of a whim this one. Only touched down from my hols at Stansted a few hours earlier and despite the definite forecast of rain I decided to go ahead and do this one cycling 25 miles through stormy weather just to get to the start.....duathletes aren't normal. Anyway, me and Clinton took the first run out together with Mark close behind. Onto the bikes, the 3 of us formed an effective group until Mark decided to decimate both us and attack on the 7th lap putting over a minute into both of us in the remaining 3 laps! However, once out of T2, I managed to gain ground quickly and took 1st with about 600 metres to go. Nice....... Alas no photos as my GB team photographer wife was sane enough to stay at home.
