Excellent swims by our @chickenboy & @Adam getting out the water 79th & 150th overall.

Do we have a number for @Sparky ?

I’m guessing there was a discrepancy in the swim distance at one of the courses as @Sparky was a few seconds quicker than Big Dave, but 640th out of the water.

In other news The Sandman sprint yesterday & standard today on Ynys Môn (Anglesey) both had the swim dropped due to sheeeeit weather & adopted a duathlon format…& also I’m guessing, the middle.

Delamere 10km this morning

It’s lashing down - waiting for a few minutes before the off to get out of the car

Both wife and daughter have declared that they have forgotten their waterproof jackets and are now debating who gets to wear mine - ffs :man_facepalming:

I haven’t logged on yet as I’m trying to get out on the bike before the weather starts. Could Erkner be a downstream, can’t remember if it is river or lake.

I was supposed to be doing the 50M TT this morning but didn’t fancy the A66 at Keswick even very earlier with lots of surface spray and reduced visibility.

Yeah, just thought about Weymouth 70.3 on my jog up to The Edge :umbrella:

Having said it’s a lovely day in Somt earlier, it’s gone very grey now and the wind is picking up.

How was he? I learnt during TOTP on friday that he’s actually Welsh, which seemed weird for a member of such an Irish band.

Oof! @adam gonna be peed off!

Dave winning the old geezers category … or is it wave starts? So people still out there?

It must be in waves, I watched Adam’s position drop from 10th to 11th at one point.
