Having qualified in Wales finishing 11th i was eligible to race again for GBR at the Kitzbuhel ETU cup, the format for this race was a 2 day, qualifier and final.
The first race was an individual time trial, which started with a running dive into a freezing cold lake in the rain which i loved, coming out the swim i had caught 2 people who started 15 and 30 seconds ahead of me, i then buried myself on the bike to post the 5th fastest bike split and ran at tempo speed to secure a start the next day in the final finishing 15th in the qualifier,
the next day did not go as well, legs feeling dead from the day before, i took my position on the start pontoon and within 5 strokes of the klaxon i was under the water with people swimming over me.
Not a good start.
i made up a lot of time on the bike again however i did not have it in me on the day, finishing 25th in a field of 30 finalists however many had not qualified and i was pleased just to make the final.
Exciting news, for the 2016/17 season i will be racing for Yonda Racing team!!!
