Event 2 in the 2023 Multisport Championship series witnessed another fabulous performance from Chelsey who won her age group and was second female. Liz was 8th and also won her age group while Kirsty was third woman and second in her age group. The race also witnessed Ella Grabsky's first triathlon supported by proud Dad on his 60th birthday, who was unable to race having picked up an injury running 60k for his birthday two days before! 

Eogan took Phil's place...and then went and won the M70 despite having a bike that weighed more than Liz and having just a few hours notice, not to mention very little recent training! Jack Hayward was 5th overall and, like Malcolm Hughes, who was continuing his return to racing, was second in his age group. Matthew Binns produced the fastest swim of the day and came in seconds behind Malcolm. 

Erica Martin also competed in the aquabike due to having a tight calf on the day and being unfit to run. But did the Club proud by winning in a time of 57:18 for the 400m swim and 25k bike event. 

Well done everyone who took part...next up is the virtual Aquabike or Aquathlon(10-16th July) event to be decided in the week before. 

Claire Read completed her first middle distance triathlon at Staffordshire 70.3 Half Ironman in an excellent 5:34:17, coming 4th in her age group and 38th out of 244 women overall. 

Arundel triathlon was the the first event of the season featuring Phoenix athletes.

Malcolm raced for the first time since 2021 in the standard distance, following a long recovery from Covid (and did well placing 3rd in his age group).

Amelia did well in her first triathlon (sprint distance) but reported back saying "I think I'm clear on my strengths and weaknesses!".

Jack Hayward also completed the Sprint distance in just over an hour but swam a couple of lengths longer than he should becasue no one told him to stop...such is the fun of triathlon...!
