Michelle Carter was raring to go after completing West Lancs and decided to take on Wilmslow Triathlon with more confidence.
Knocking two minutes off her swim time, Carter was a little disappointed with a shortened bike course owing to the weather but still finished in a great time of 1:17:48.
Wilmslow Tri is the largest sprint in Greater Manchester and is suitable for novices and seasoned triers – offering both sprint and double sprint options. A pool-based swim gives a smooth and quick transition to the cricket pitch for the undulating cycle route after which the 6.3K run promises an attractive two lap route on trail and road through the suburbs of Cheshire.
FLEETING, FLAT AND FAST
Fleetwood was the Tri of choice for a group of Burndeners, being a popular choice for those who are after a fast sprint on quiet, traffic free country lanes. In its 14th year and taking triers around the attractive and pan-flat promenade, Fleetwood Tri is an ideal choice for first timers to the swim, bike, run sequence.
Here are the times for our fleeting triers –
Keith Thomas – 1:23:00, Marie Parkinson – 1:33:06, Kath Berry – 1:37:42, Ged Turner – 1:38:11, Steve Holt – 1:40:20.
