Pwllheli Triathlon

Pwllheli Triathlon.

During the 20km bike leg. Finishing my 5km run to come in second in my first senior triathlon.

Triathlete Owain Llyr James was in action again last weekend, competing in his first senior triathlon. Owain is currently sponsored by Revolution Bikes of Bangor and Team Inov 8, and competed in the Pwllheli triathlon on a cold sunny morning, with 71 athletes taking part.

This race came on the back of Owain’s aquathlon win at Aberystwyth in February.

No 1 and first to go in the pool was Owain, with a 30 second break before the next athlete started. A good swim by Owain saw him having the best swim time of the day by a margin of 43 seconds in a 400m swim time of 5 minutes 18 seconds. Next discipline was a 12 mile time trial, before returning to the leisure centre at Pwllheli for the start of the 5km run around the harbour in Pwllheli. With about 300 meters to go on the run stage Owain was passed to come in second.
