I’ve been very slack with updates over a busy last two weeks. so here goes

On Sunday the 6th I headed back to my parents for the Concept Sport’s Dorchester triathlon, it’s the first race I ever did and also the first place I ever won, so it was really great to go and catch up with some old friends.. I Competed over a 400m pool swim, 15mile bike and 4 mile run the aim was to develop some speed for the coming season during a relatively hard block of training.

I’m sat in Colombo airport on a 6 hour stop over before flying back to London. It’s been an interesting weekend, I raced the first running of the Bangkok Triathlon finishing 2nd to Reinaldo Colucci�with Ben Sanson taking the 3rd spot on the podium. You can see more details and a copy of the results on the new Team TBB website that has just gone live at http://www.teamtbb.com/

All the talk before the race was about the quality of the river water, something that lead to quite a small field. With 70,000 bht or around 1000 pounds for the win I tried not to think too much about it.�There certainly wasn’t a water quality test but once we were in� one bit or dark murky water seemed much the same as all the others I have swum in over the years, I tried to�keep my mouth shut and havent got sick yet.

I’m sorry my update is a few days late, It’s school holidays here in the North of Thailand and every single kid between the ages of 6 and 15 seems to be glued to a shoot em up game at the only internet cafe in town. I have tried bribes to get them off but to no avail…I won the Asian Aquathlon Champs on Friday beating European U23 Bronze medalist Pocsai Balazs from Hungry in a sprint over the last 500m meters.

I finished 8th in the ITU points race on Sunday. I was dissapointed as I blew on the run after exiting the water second behind Ben Sanson and riding hard with a front pack of around 12.  During the run the temprature hit 36 degrees, so there were alot of explosions. Reinaldo Colucci won the race and Balazs finished second.  Ben punctured on the bike and Stephen Bayliss crashed but still finished inside the top 20.
