After having a poor race at Bredon Tri following a virus, I entered Cotswold triathlon wanting to have a good, solid performance. However, after a series of disturbed nights from my teething toddler, I wasn’t hopeful and decided to just treat the race as training.

I actually ended up having a really good race finishing the race in 1hr 11.14 mins and coming 2nd in my age category and 10th female overall in a race which included an elite wave. I completed the 750m swim in 11.12 mins which was the 5th fastest female swim and 16th fastest overall out of the men and women. I tried to stay within myself on the bike to save myself for the run as I haven’t done much bike training recently and completed the course in 37:16mins. I then had a good run, completing the 5k run in 20:52 mins.

Rosalind Townsend -Hope also raced and won her age category in a time of 1hr 20:38 mins.
