I've done the #Lake62 Standard Distance Triathlon a number of times previously.
Coming back for 2018 it didn't disappoint, even if the weather did! The summer heatwave was sadly broken with torrential rain and wind. This didn't stop the events spirit though - most of the competitors got through OK and it was another well run event.
This year saw a change in the bike course which removed the previous foot down junction. I liked the new bike course and it took in some new picturesque countryside so definitely worth returning to if you've raced here before.
I really liked the medal design and the buff was a functional additional race gift. I'm looking forward to giving the September end of season one a go to try and improve on my time (in hopefully better weather!).
