Steve W and Emma S made the most of the fair September
weather with a joint assault on the Epworth End of Season Sprint Triathlon
(swim 400m / bike 20K / Run 5K) last Sunday. Both performed well with Emma
taking a 3rd place in her age group in spite of many months off the
multisport scene due to niggling injuries.
Steve, meanwhile racked up another age group win and an
impressive 4th position overall. This was Steve’s tenth consecutive
age group victory meaning he maintains his unblemished 100% 2015 record. In all
ten triathlons he’s entered this year he’s won his age group – he’s also
finished in the top ten in the overall field (a frankly amazing) nine times.
Steve didn’t even take up triathlon until well into his 40s,
it would have been interesting to see how he’d have performed at about half his
current age. We reckon he might have been pretty quick.
