Ironman Malaysia
Sharon Norton's comments on her Ironman Malaysia race: "I survived - just! Time was 12hrs and 4 minutes and very brutal day. I think it was a tougher race than China and Hawaii. Run was about 4hrs 37 min which was a bit disappointing but Belinda Granger who won did 3hrs 31 min so if I put that into context not too bad. I was second in my age group and first out of the swim and bike before getting run down by some bird who had a 3:30 odd marathon to her name off the bike. I think she ran about 4hrs at this race".

Danger 1000 Ocean Swim, 16th January 2010
1000m openwater swim

Rob Solly, 19:58, 36th Open, overall postion 265
Linda Solly, 20:10, 7th F35-39, overall 278
Julie King, 21:14, 3rd F55-59, overall 369

Julie's race report: "Had a good swim at Torquay this afternoon, coming in 3rd in my age category. Blustery south-westerly winds made heading out to the first buoy a trial, in fact I think I went a bit off-course on that leg! But I made up for this in the 2nd & 3rd legs using the current and choppiness to my advantage, managing to pass a few swimmers with the same green caps. My prize was a really nice Engine silicon swimcap and goggles."

Well done Ladies.
