Ben's Triathlon Update

Following the Malmesbury Triathlon on Sunday 29th August, Ben Keenan, Consultant at Vector’s Wiltshire branch improved his swimming and running time, but was slightly slower on the bike section. The Malmesbury Triathlon consists of a 400m swim, 22k bike ride and 5k run.

Ben, said: “My swim was quicker than last year, as was my run which was over 2 minutes faster. Even my transitions were smoother than last year, but I had trouble getting my feet in the shoes on the bike, and it was a very windy day, so my cycling time was 3 minutes slower in comparison to the 2009 event.”

Overall Ben beat last year’s time by 30 seconds to finish 86th, an improvement on 125th last year.

Ben’s next event is the Cotswold Triathlon on Sunday 5th September at Keynes Country Park, The Cotswold Water Park, Nr. Cirencester, which is made up of a 750m open water swim, 20m bike ride and 5k run.
