Entry fee graciously covered by work!

With barely enough time for the three peaks blisters to calm down, TEAM BIS are on the road again - this time to the London Triathlon.  Aug 9th will see Si McKinna and Tom Jaggard tackle the Olympic distance triathlon - 1,500m Swim (Si), 40Km Bike (TJ) & 10Km Run (Si). It’s our first time, so we are simply hoping for a finish this time out!

Tom will be enduring 3 massive bike races in that 1 week and will raising money for a good cause - more info and how to help here shortly - well done to Tom for completing his three race challenge - see all the info and there is of course, still time to pledge - take a look at www.justgiving.com/tomjaggard

Just a couple of pictures from the event - and of course there’s the official race finish footage, care of Virgin Media, click to enlarge:

We achieved our target of safely finishing the course intact (well, less the tops of Mac’s nipples - see pic left!!) our times:
swim = 0:39:15
bike =  1:38:05
run    = 0:50:53
Tom’s bike time included a bloody unfortunate puncture!!!!

BLENHEIM SPRINT TRIATHLON - 06/06/09

Our 2009 Tri season got underway with a freebie at Blenheim (thanks Virgin!).  Sprint event this time, so not quite so much pressure! It was a great day out, only spoilt by the constant rain! results:

Overall, we came in 1hour 32minutes 09seconds - 79th place of 188 finishers, breakdown:

Simon (swim):            17m 45s (111) - Serious kick in the head at the start!
Trans1 (lake to bike)  3m 11s (24) -     That felt about a mile long, and steeper than the Ben!
Tom (bike):                  45m 14s (102) - Awesome ride given the dire conditions
Trans2 (bike to run)   1m 19s (32) -      Faster than a ferrari pitstop
Kevin (run):                 24m 42s (34) -   That’s seriously fast! and he was moaning it was slow!!

Thanks again to the company for our free place, we’ll next appear at London in August, watch this site!
