After many hours of gruelling training and 4 hours of hell on London’s roads, I’ve now completed my first Olympic-length triathlon. My finishing time was an honourable 4:21 and I now look forward to reducing that next time around.
As I suspected, the swim leg was the most challenging and I was relieved to finish. I got considerably wetter than I expected despite the fine weather. I guess that’s the downside of swimming. Luckily the cycling gave me plenty of time to dry.
Thank you to Andrew Sharpe (pictured) for joining me today, to everyone who came along to support me and to those who generously made donations to the charity. I couldn’t do it without you and it’s great to be able to help children through their difficult times.
Thanks, Cey
