This weekend two members of Kenilworth Wheelers took part in Duathlons around the midlands and both bought home podium places. Sara Northover was second in her age group in the Chilly Duathlon at Castle Coombe and Paul Atkins took the overall win at the Tempo Events Spring Duathlon at Moreton Morrell.
Both events got approval to go ahead with strict Covid protocols in place which saw athletes start off in small groups based on pace to minimise the chance of groups forming during the race (drafting is banned on the bike anyway). Everyone respected the new rules and there was a great buzz around the venues with people excited to be back racing.
A huge thanks to both DBMax and Tempo Events for organising and to all the volunteers who stood out on a cold snowy morning.
