LLANDUDNO SPRINT 13th July 750m 20k 5k By Mike Lisle
Choppy sea swim, twice up the ORME and a run along the seafront with a nasty little climb at the turnaround the sprint was added on this year after the success of the standard distance race last year. Great performances from Rob Smallbone who stormed the bike leg just 24 hours after finishing tropical Ripon, and Colin Wightman who cruised passed me on the run turnaround point. Expensive race but decent t shirt and posh buffet at the town hall for all competitors at the post race awards.

BOUNDARY BREEZE 27th July 750m 23 k 5k by Mike Lisle
This is probably the best open water sprint race in our region and once again is being used as the NW Sprint Championships. The warm lake swim [full of reeds this year] followed by a fastish bike and tree lined run. Well done to newcomer Mike Hodgkinson who biked and ran strongly to lead the Merseytri group home. Quality t shirt and free post race massage add to the value of this race.
