Shoreline Awesome Foursome Quadrathlon

Well it wasn't ever going to be easy for anyone coming back into the competition as last years team winners of the Shoreline Awesome Foursome Quadrathlon.

But once again the Dept26 Quadrathlon Team of Tim Moyle, Lee Sampson, Brett Higham and Rob Shaw did it again!

Tim started the event strong for the team coming in third from the swim to transition, where Lee took over (on his 29er!) and grabbed back another place after 30km on the road. Brett then took to the water and gained the first spot within the first 2km of the 5km Kayak, this gave Rob the task of holding onto the lead through the 10km run.
It was commentated on as the closest finish of any Shoreline Quadrathlon, and the images of Rob sprinting in to finish really sum up the effort the whole team put in to keep Dept 26 at the top.

Well done team!, here's to next year and the possibility of Dept 26 also entering in a B team!

Dust, dust and more dust...


Will it ever rain again?!

Big turn out in team colours tonight and after the lung buster climb of ivy leaf (thanks Rich!) Tiscott was as dry as, and it would've been rude not to have at least a couple of runs, so a couple of runs it was!

No casualties, no mechanicals, fast and dry. Let us hope we get another like this!
