September 20, 2009 by Adam
Provisional Results are now available from this weekend’s Esendex Last Minute Triathlon, which saw a record field of 550 registered competitors. Download the provisional results now.
The Men’s race was dominated by Andy Tarry from Ceepo TFN RT who beat the field by over 4 minutes, finishing in 46:35.. The only thing which escaped Andy’s grasp was the £cash£ offered up by event sponsor’s Esendex to anyone who set a new course record. Andy missed his own record time by 2 seconds - better luck next year!
Second place was very tight between Rich Sumpter from La Bicicleta who finished in a time of 50:36 and Carl Shaw from Charnwood Tri Club who finished in a time of 50:42.
The female race also saw a very comfortable winner - Elizabeth Bullivant, who beat Sara Symington by nearly 3 minutes, they finished in 55:56 and 59:39 respectively.
The female top 3 was completed by Sally Hughes from Mansfield Tri Club who finished in 01:00:26.
It was also great to see over 150 first time triathletes taking part in the event, well done to everyone who completed their first triathlon.
Anyone that fancies one final challenge check out our off road duathlon in Sherwood Pines on the 11th October.
We hope everyone enjoyed the event and that we will see even more people racing in 2010! Entries open on the 1st November at www.onestepbeyond.org.uk
