Tribe Club Results 


Woodside Triathlon 19/6/05

 

The last army barracks tri was held today in what could only be described as bleak weather conditions. The rain fortunately held off, but all competitors suffered from the cold, especially on the bike leg where many chose to wear jackets. In all 17 tribesters turned out for this last tri. In the mini, Sophie and Madeline Jones along with Keenan Georg-Dent, all put in great performances.

 

Under the handicap system the Sprint and Short course events were run as one. The Short course competitors triumphed by taking out the first three positions. In a fitting finale, the club race director, Bret Hart, was first over the line earning him a place in club history by being the last winner of the last tri at this venue. Eleahn claimed second place with Daniel Clohesy taking the third.

 

In the Sprint, Bruce Cox after a hesitant start in the swim leg surged away to run in first in over the line. Obviously his Thursday nights run sessions are starting to pay dividends. Second in was Leonie Proctor, followed in by Mark Bloomfield in third place. Fastest swim went to Helen Roach, 5:50, fastest bike Scott 25:09 and also fastest run 12:56. Mark Bloomfield showed his continued improvement of form with the second fastest bike leg, 26:46 and run leg, 13:00, just 4 secs. behind Scott.

 

In the Short; fastest swim Daniel Clohesy 2:30, fastest bike, Ian Cox 11:15, and fastest run, Daniel Clohesy 4:19. The last two tri's were run as a handicap series.
