A few hardy souls started their race season early last weekend as they tackled the local Burntwood Aquathlon in Lichfield.
A 400m pool swim, followed by a bracing 5km run in the March breeze, awaited the 3 MVHers as they set out to race alongside our friendly rivals at Burntwood Tri Club.
Amongst our trio was Max Roberts, a new MVH member racing for the first time in a multisport event. Max has put in the hard yards this winter to prepare for his first triathlon. Already an accomplished swimmer, Max enjoyed the challenge of what many consider the hardest transition in multisport: Swim to Run. His first triathlon is edging closer and – by this performance – it is set to be a good year!
Lynn Nesbitt and Frans Frison exercised their more experienced skills, both coming back from injuries (and surgery!). Can’t keep these two down! Great early season efforts.
