My wife's cousin took part again this year, he did the 'olympic' distance [1mile swim, 40km cycle and 10km run]. Went down to spectate and here's a few shots.

The first one is my favourite. I like the 3rd one too but would have liked to see motion in the wheels.

I could do the 1 mile swim, Gilly could do the bike part, who's up for the run? Embarassed

I too like the story shot one is telling - you captured the feeling well.

Not a fan of the second - the selective colouring, or the comp.  Confused

Third one - like Degs said could use some motion, unless he is doing a satdown trackstand!  Smile

I'm out of the cycling bit for a little while, but Jon rides, so he can take my spot!!!  Crying or Very sad
