Themi Petridis (01:07:03) and Elizabeth (Lizzie) Bellinger (01:20:36) did amazing and both came first in their age category. Overall Themi was the  2nd fastest male and Lizzie was the 3rd  fastest female of the race which is a great achievement.

Paula Beades (01: 31:44) lost out on 3rd place in her age category by merely 86 seconds, and placed 13th overall in the female category.

The remaining competitors all had great results too: Chris Brolly (01:48:01) placed 27th in his age category and 45th in the male category . Both Matt Cole (01:18:20) and Stefanie Azuga (01:39:42) placed 7th in their age category. Matt placed overall 14th in the male category and Stefanie Azuga 19th in the female category.

We had great support on the day from some of the other Club members who cycled all the way to Saffron Walden to support us.

Looking at some of the transition times from some of the team members, coach Lucy already announced that there will be some Transition workshop taking place soon to gain some crucial time back during our upcoming races.
