... grim alright.
We got pulled out during the swim because of thunder and lightning and then the really heavy rain on the bike didn't stop and for good measure... my chain snapped on the third lap! Blimey... glad to be home in the warm ;)
Good luck to those taking part tomorrow, hope the weather holds out.

it seemed a couple of waves got pulled out the water for lightning!
Rain on the bike made it somewhat more epic i thought, although not ideal conditions for my first tri!
I know what you mean Frank, kinda get into the spirit of things etc, when my chain broke though I was like, def sod this ;)
Looked ideal today, I'll remember the route thing for next time Urszula.
Hi Jake and everyone doing it yesterday. Today morning the conditions were pretty much excellent for racing which is not what you want to hear. The Westminster bike route is so worth it - speeding through empty closed off London roads.
Sunday sprint was okay, windy and a strong current, but we were VERY lucky with the weather. Thought of all of you on Saturday. Bike was a delight, and run as okay as a run post bike can be...slow start (for us more mature triathletes!) and then faster. Gorgeous going through closed road and speeding through red light! Lovely, supportive atmosphere and I raised @£3k for Macmillan in memory of my sister.
Well done Shelley, sounds like you had a good race and that is a very respectable sum to raise in sponsorship in memory of your sister.
Thank you Charles. Yeah, every time I swear I'll never do another...woke at 5am energised and planning the next....oh dear...
Wow!! £3000 is AMAZING!! I knew you would get sucked in Shelly :-)
