A small group of hardy indiciduals turned up for the second fun duathlon of the season. Despite the weather (wndy and flurries of snow) it proved to be one of the more interesting races. Keith Harcus improved his time by a long margin on last months event and Chris Webb enjoyed his first duathlon. Rosie Cursiter battled the elements and finished with a good time (and was the only female taking part). At the front it was an extremely close race with David Foulis leading on the first run section - and managing to stay out in front on the cycle. However, with only seconds between David, Mark , Torquil and Gavin on the cycle it all came down to the final run. But for David it was lost in the transitions and Mark and Gavin posted the fasted final run lap. Torquil emerged the winner with the other three finishing less than 20 seconds behind.
