  • Comments: The race was held in Yorkshire. This is a region of 6 million people, yet it remarkably would have come 13th overall in the Olympics if it was a country. Alistair and Jonathon Brownlee come from Yorkshire and they took Gold and Bronze in the Triathlon. They are one fast breed of people! The winner of my race was only 8 minutes slower than the Gold Olympic time and would have won the womens race outright with his time of 1.58.59. Jeepers. My initial target was 3hrs 50. My big dream was 3hrs 30. I acheived that and know i could have been maybe 15mins faster, so i am am thrilled by my performance for my first ever Oly. It was great to do it with my son, who is now looking forward to our next race, and my other son also wants a piece of the action. What a great sport i have the honour to be part of!
