I have in my hand the latest Lake tri shoes; the CX311C, which have kindly been sent to us by our new sponsor. 

I recently took part in arguable the most prestigious ironman distance race, par Hawaii World Championships. 

Nick our resident dualthete won the entire Hillingdon duathlon series recently. 

In the 20 years this race has been run, it has always be been blessed with great weather, nobody knows why but the sun always seems to shine for this race. 

Wrecsam triathlon has hosted this established race since 2003. 

Nick Shasha is our specialist elite duathlete; with an extremely quick run and devastating bike, making him one of the best duathletes in the country.
