DURTY TRIATHLON 2011
Ian Gray returned to take part in his second Durty Traithlon in August. Following his efforts in the short event in 2010, Ian opted to challenge himself still further this year by competing in the 'Long Hard' event which incorporates a 1500m open water swim, 30k off road bike and 10k run.
Missing from the starting line up at the 'Durty' this year was Andy Beattie who was turning in a star performance as part of the clubs five man team at the 24 hour Adidas Thunder Run.
130 athletes completed the course and the details of Ian's performance can be seen below.

A DAY IN THE LAKES TRIATHLON
Congratulations to Ian Gray and Andy Beattie for successfully completing the very arduous Day in the Lakes Triathlon. In an eventful day Ian managed to lose two teeth in transition and Andy took a trip over his handlebars while cycling up Kirkstone Pass. None the less the pair finished the Half Ironman Distance event in spendid times; Ian 6 hours 44 minutes 7 seconds and Andy 6 hours 46 minutes.
Sadly Daz took cramp during the cycle stage of the race and had to pull out before the run.
