So the triathlon season for 2006 is finally underway. Having competed at both Stratford and Blenheim it was great to see how much of an improvement I have made in 12-months, and I am certainly looking forward to the rest of the season.

I have posted my race reports from Stratford and Blenheim under the events section, so take a browse at them to see how it has all been going. I’ve finished this month off by training at the High Performance Centre in Swansea, gaining some valuable experience and quality sess... |

Well the triathlon season is officially underway for Bex, with her first race-taking place at Stratford. This was the first race Bex did last year; so it would be a great benchmark to see the progression she has made over the winter months.
