Report written by Katherine (she/her)
2 Goodgymers tested their endurance with the Coventry Sprint Triathlon.
Katherine's start time was first so she had completed her swim before Nigel entered the pool but appreciated his support from the balcony.
Having been chilly before the start, adrenaline kicked in as we moved from the swim to the bike with no chance to get cold. This year there were a few additional sets of traffic lights due to HS2 which unfortunately Katherine got caught in 3 times and Nigel twice, but this will be taken into account for the final times.
Despite jelly legs for the first half of the run - the downhill on the way back gave us a bit of a boost for the finish, along with the great support from the marshals all the way around the course. Many thanks to Coventry Triathletes for organising such a great event.
Final results TBC once the traffic light delays have been taken into account!
Loved seeing a partially sighted competitor taking part on a tandem - this really is such an inclusive sport and I would encourage anyone who hasn't done a tri and fancies it, to give it a try! :-)
