TORQ are very proud of having some of the fastest age groupers in the sport, including Chris Standidge, the overall winner of the British Triathlon Championships. 

One of my favourite events from 2013 was the Icebreaker; it was a massive surprise to win, as I am certainly not a multi-sport athlete, but I had to try it again this year and hoped to defend my title. 

To celebrate the launch of our 3 new products for 2014, we have decided to throw a FREE Apple Crumble TORQ Gel and FREE Natural Blackcurrant TORQ Energy Drink sachet into every online order* placed through the TORQ online store from today (10th February) through until the last day of February. 

After a long search for people wishing to apply for the first TORQ Performance Swimming Team way back in September 2013, then subsequent trials at Loughborough Universities’ “Pool of Dreams” on the 12th January 2014 – the final athletes for the team were chosen. 

After searching for applicants to form the first TORQ Performance Swimming Team, 16 hopefuls descended on the home of British Swimming and “the pool of dreams” at Loughborough University with one aim and one aim only – to swim fast and become the first members of our newest TORQ Fuelled squad. 

As with most triathletes at this time of the year, Nick has concentrated on one sport, whilst maintaining the other two to a lesser extent. 

Janet Birkmyre reflects on the successes of the 2013 season; eight months of racing from May until the end of December, taking in National Series events, the British National Track Champs, plus European and World Masters’ Championships as well.  

TORQ-Fuelled elite track cyclist Janet birkmyre takes on the National Derny Championships in Newport a race which involves being motor paced by a modified motor cycle around a track, here is Janet’s account of the race where she took a silver medal.  

It’s been such a busy year that despite having our Team MTB photo-shot at the end of August by the fabulous Joolze Dymond, we haven’t shared the pictures with you yet. 

We haven’t held back on the throttle here at TORQ with regard to new product development, in fact we’ve cranked it up a notch or two. 

The TORQ team have been racing strong throughout the 2013 year, with podiums at the club relays, World Championships and a plethora of wins throughout the UK. 

Wishing you all the best over the festive period.
