Club Championships 10 - Wednesday 10th June 2015

There were slightly more favourable conditions for this evening 10 compared to the last couple. Still windy but not as bad as previously in the day. It was good to see our big hitters out for this one, with Marcus just about making the start after a nightmare journey around the M25. Good for him that he did, as he romped to victory to take the Men's Club Championship Trophy, pushing David into second place, with a still highly respectable 23.43. It was good to see Stuart Pearce back in the fold, rounding out the top three.

Once again, Jake was the Women's Champion in 28.20, with Deborah Hurst taking the second spot in 31.45. We were denied seeing any more KPRC ladies taking to the start line through various reasons, but our particular thoughts go to Sam Pickup, who had an accident at the weekend and could not ride due to a broken arm. Get well soon Sam.

We had some new riders for this event. Congratulations to Dale who rode his first 10 with Fernando Guttierrez, although they had mixed fortunes. Dale was persuaded to join us by Simon T, both members of Epsom Triathlon club, and Dale rode a highly respectable 25.50, which I am sure he will be trimming down very soon. Unfortunately Fernando missed the finish, but having come along to the Open 10 yesterday, he now knows where the finish line is! Sharon Andrew, who is also preparing for an Ironman Triathlon in the summer, also joined us for her first 10 mile TT and won the award for 'most enthusiastic crossing of the line'. She will be riding with us again soon.

Thanks, as always, to the various helpers that make these events possible. Brian, for his excellent handicapping, Steve for putting out the signs and Judy for number spotting. I was able to give Frank a hand with the clocks and it made me appreciate how much work goes into getting all that correct. Cheers Frank.
