On Saturday 7th August Heather (u11's athlete) took part in the National Youth Triathlon Championships at Bellahouston Park in Glasgow. Following a poor swim it looked very unlikely that Heather would be in medal contention but a good effort in the cycle clawed back a few places. At the start of the run Heather was still well down the field but with great determination she picked her way through the girls in front and finished the event with a Bronze medal (only 4 seconds behind the Silver medal place and 19 seconds off winning the Gold. Most of all she had lots of fun at her first Triathlon attempt. |
