I am so, so chuffed; this result alone has made my season.
Splits are as follows:
Swim - 35.16
T1 + Bike - 2.34.12
T2 + Run - 1.47.10
Based on my pre race targets I almost achieved my swim target, achieved my bike target (T1 was a very tardy 4:30ish by my watch!), and missed my run target by about 5 mins (assuming 2 mins for T2). To be honest, I ran to achieve a sub 5 hour result and took it steady and, apart from walking through the final feed station at the end of the dam whilst I enjoyed a motivational jaffa cake, I ran all the way. I am very pleased with that.
Expect a full report in the next day or so.
And this is for Lonsy:
He had a great race today and thoroughly deserves the cake. Unfortunately he went AWOL after the race and I was unable to pay my debt. I will, of course, make it up to him next time we meet. Well done buddy.
And what about Mike Scott? People that old should not be able to go that fast. Simply awesome.

Turbo, well done! That is a storming result. In fact RAF Tri did so well today, with some really good results. What a great end to a season.
Thanks dude, much appreciated. The cake looks delicious! Unfortunately I was off packing the van, I did come back for prize giving!
Massive congratulations on your time, I could see how pleased you were when you came over the line!
Looking forward to next time...
Hey T Man. Very happy for you. I know how much sub-5 meant for you. It's only the beginning! faster next year! Well done buddy.
Some fast times by everyone! Glad that Mike Scott took over from me as Inter-Services Long Course Vet Champ! A very good race from him - where did that run come from!
