A fantastic morning yesterday saw us complete the triathlon in an aggregate time of 4 hours 25 minutes. Not quite as quick as we'd hoped but the environs of Bude are a lot lumpier than the gently undulating terrain around Roadford Lake! - "the only way is up" springs to mind. Plus we had to manage without marshals so there was a bit of navigation time (and errors!)

There are lots more photos from the triathlon on our Facebook page here and here

Thanks to Stephen and Carol Lay and Hugh and Bridget Baker for coming along to make sure we all did what we were supposed to do and a huge thank you to everyone who has contributed so generously to Literacy in a Box Trust and Right To Play.

Thanks again for all your support.

Phil, Helen and Caroline
