NW Duathlon Championships. Mark Russel wins V40

Well done to our 4 club members who did the NW Duathlon championships at Lancaster on 9th March.

The course was a 5k run along the River Lune, a 20k hilly undulating bike ride followed by a second 5k run. Mark Russell struggled to get into a rhythm on the bike course but finished well up in 12^th position and first in his age group 40 -45 with a time of 1 hour 25 mins. His training partner Mick Murray came in 31^st and 3^rd in his age group. New member Bradley Thornton was 66^th and Steve Spamer, back from injury, was 71^st out of a total of 92 competitors
