22/11/09 - Aberdeenshire Council Inverurie Duathlon (5k run/20k bike/5k run)
Well done to the seven intrepid triathletes who braved the howling wind on Sunday to complete the Inverurie duathlon. Special mention goes to Matthew Alexander and new member Julie Erskine (so new that she didn't even put AUKT as her club on her race registration form) - showing their class by winning the male junior and female senior categories respectively! Superb!! Canny veteran triathlete Ian Edwards also doing well, finishing as 2nd SV. That's two weekends in a row where AUKT members have won races, we're on the way up folks!!
An honorable mention must also go to Bastien Bruninx - not only did the brave Belgian have to contend with the nerves of entering his first duathlon, but he also borrowed a bike which was a wee bit too small for him. His description of looking like, "one of those clowns on a circus bike", captured the image perfectly. Bastien, that must have been a painful cycle, you are a hero.
15/11/09 - Aberdeenshire Council Methlick Duathlon (5k run/18k bike/3k run)

Ian and Alex also putting in good run/bike/run shifts. Well done all!
