Shaun Lamb and Jo Carritt win the Mid Wales Ultra Tri!!
A fantastic performance from Shaun saw him take victory with a stunning time of 16hrs53, with Jo winning the womens' category in 18hrs44. All competitors did brilliantly - and the weather held up despite our pre-race concerns over rain.
The swim was shortened, due to temperature and a stiff offshore breeze, but from that point conditions were reasonably favourable, with athletes even enjoying some sunshine for the later sections of the bike, and a warm night meant the sporadic drizzle didn't cause too much trouble.
Some super individual performances, and a reasonably tight field meant the race was (hopefully) enjoyed by all, and as organisers we'd like to thank all competitors, and especially all support crews for making the event such a success.
We'll have more on the site soon - including full results, reports and photos/videos - keep checking back. If any competitors are writing event reports, please email them to the usual address - we'd be happy to feature them on the site.
