TARA TRUMAN competed in the Snowdon Brutal Duathlon with Vicci Phillips, Lisa Gillooly and Anya Eames taking part in the duathlon.

Phillips finished in 10 hours and 34 minutes, Eames came home in 11hours and 25 minutes and Gillooly posted a time of 11 hours and 25 minutes.

Truman said: “My race consisted of a 1.9mile swim, 58 mile bike (including over 5000ft of climbing), then 14 miles running including a Snowdon summit. I finished a close third off the bike.

“I lost one more place on the run but managed to hold on to fourth up and down the mountain.”

Meanwhile, Andrew Oborne posted a personal best at the Langport sprint triathlon, clocking a time of 01:19.

Elsewhere, Teresa Walton and Annette Haylings completed the sprint distance triathlon at Newent. Described as a sprint triathlon for all ages.

The swim was 26 lengths of the pool (400m). An 18km cycle over a picturesque flat route via Taynton, Highleadon and Malswick.

The 4k run generally on the route of Newent Park Run, off-roads and within the school grounds run. Both Teresa and Annette completed the event but timings are still awaited.

Unfortunately Annette got sent the wrong way on the run and Teresa had an issue with her tri watch.

Finally, the Dart 10k, was the first and arguably the finest 10k swim in open water. Now in its ninth year, numbers have grown from 200 to 1600 entrants this year.

Described as a journey rather than a race in a unique journey punctuated by classic landmarks from Totnes to Dittisham along the river Dart. Anne Roberts post an impressive time of two hours and 51 minutes.
