Recommended Posts

Just thought I'd let you all know several members of the forum are doing ironman Staffordshire this weekend

 

A 1.2 mile swim, 56 mile bike and a 13.1 mile run.

 

We have

 

the Engraving Company's, Mark, Annette & Dean

Chase Multi service centres, Jay

Bicester shoe repairs, Gavin

And myself from Cobb-lees

 

A group of 6 cobblers from all over the UK Doing the main even, whilst Liam Edwards junior will be doing the Ironkids race on Saturday.

Good luck to my fellow cobblers

Results.......

 

Mark & Jay where doing the relay & came 2nd overall in the relay teams (despite Mark crashing early on & splitting his bike frame, he still rode the fastest bike split with a bike set to fail at any point!) :smt036

Annette came 5th in her age category & qualified for the world championships!

Dean, came 26th overall, with 11 pros in front of him........ let me re-say that 26th OVERALL out of 2700!

Gavin had a storming for 70.3 & said afterwards "Tough mudder is not! The hardest race in the world." hear, hear cracking effort

I myself had a mini war, I caught an Iron friend early on the bike & diced & dueled for the entire bike, ran within 25 feet off each other the entire run before his greater experience finally got me in the very last mile. it was the race of my life.
