well done on the race.
really sad that about the chap dying, seems to be all too frequent an occurrence, there really should be some kind of medical sign off/pre qual for endurance activities happens far too frequently for my liking, I can't help feeling that people with serious underlying medical issues that were at least aware of them could manage them, or at least make some sensible decisions, rather than jumping in freezing water triggering a heart attack, epileptic fit etc. and dying quite often when they've taken up the sport to "get healthy".

The SWYD sprint was good fun this morning. I got round in just under 1hr30. It was quite a slow course but i felt very good for the swim and bike, not so much for the run if i’m honest. I need to get some running training in before the next one.
On a very sad note a 43 year old man had a heart attack in the water and died on the beach. It was an incredibly sobering thing to experience, just horrendous.
