Famous Five Travel to Zurich......


Five Carneddau Tri’ members travelled to Lake Zurich, Switzerland to compete in the Ironman 70.3, hoping that months of hard training would come to fruition. The format, known previously as Half Ironman, saw over 3000 competitors compete over a 1.9km swim, 90km bike and 21.1km run and was won by Ronnie Schildknecht in 3:54:30 and the first woman was Sarah Schütz in 4:28:26. The Carneddau times were; Paul O’Sullivan 5:28:53, Christina McKay 5:48:50, Geraint Rowlands 5:51:29, Al Read 6:09:47 and Rachel James-Owen 7:25:35.
