Beaver club member John made a splash at the first Rutland Night Time Triathlon of the year, finishing 34th out of 116 competitors, 26th male and 9th in his age group.

The race began with a strong swim, where John ditched the wetsuit and powered through windy, choppy waters in 11:36, placing 10th overall.

Things got interesting on the bike. The course called for six laps — but John decided seven sounded better. Strava later confirmed he’d clocked 16.45km in 42:46, meaning his actual six-lap time would have been closer to 36 minutes.

On the run, John kept things steady, finishing in 42:29. Not bad for someone who admits he’s only run about five times this year!

Well done John
