National Champions and World Championship qualifiers decided in Nottingham
June 3, 2013
The Nottingham Triathlon this weekend doubled as the British Triathlon National Sprint Championships and a qualification event for the PruHealth World Triathlon Grand Final London on the 11-15 September in Hyde Park. With national titles and world championship places up for grabs, the event was fiercely competitive.
Racing over a 750m swim, 20km lake-side flat bike ride and 5km run, competitors enjoyed a safe, traffic free environment, packed grand stand finish and glorious sunshine for most of the day at the National Water Sports Centre in Nottingham.
The strength and depth of the field indicated that the desire for Age Group places at London’s World Championships is extremely high.
Winner of the 40-44 Age Group, Andy Tarry, commented:
“The aim for Saturday for me was to qualify for the Worlds, that’s all I was concentrating on, so I was pleasantly surprised to win my Age Group.”
The local Nottingham Triathlete and maths teacher added:
“I don’t feel very race fit at the moment so providing I can get a bit fitter and stay healthy I’d like to race the World Sprints and justify my selection.”
Tarry finished with the third fastest time overall behind David Bartlett (25-29) from CycleLogic and Loughborough based Carl Shaw from the HUUB TFN Race Team.
The fastest woman on the course was Anna Turvey (30-34) from Newcastle upon Tyne who was the ETU European Champion over the sprint distance in 2011. She finished just under 30 seconds ahead of Alice Hector (30-34) and former elite junior triathlete, Lucy Smith (20-24) from Loughborough Triathlon.
