Thursday 13th July we held our first ‘Wreake Duathlon’ (Run-Bike-Run)
We started the race from The Black boy in Hungarton with a 3 mile run / 13 mile bike ride / 3 mile run, the event started out as a bit of fun but soon became very competitive!
with a fairly undulating 3 mile ‘out and back’ run heading out towards Baggrave Hall, followed by a 13 mile bike ride out to Keyham/Tilton on the hill and back towards Hungarton, finishing off with the 3 mile run.
Twenty two members took part in the ‘Fun’ event with only two having to drop out after the bike ride
Although the route was very clearly marked out, two of our riders decided to add a mile or two to the route (i.e. Got Lost!)
The night was finished off with a few drinks and some great food in the pub, hopefully we can make this an annual event as there seemed to be quite a few smiling faces at the finish despite being a tough event.
