Chantal Wayman - IRONMAN

Chantal took part in Sunday's UK Ironman at Sherbourne in the south west of England. For those of you still daft enough to be living in the UK's awful weather then you'll know that it wasn't a weekend to have been spending outside let alone doing one of the world's most gruelling sporting events.

Chantal however ignored the ominous signs (not to mention extreme and dangerous weather warnings) and even proceeded with Chris, Indie and Kofi to camp at the race site - BIZARRE!!!




I spent yesterday on tenterhooks getting updates from Chris and although it looks like she had a tough day on the bike (not surprising considering the wind and the rain) but she finished in 14 Hours, 4 minutes and 36 Seconds. Very impressive stuff!

Her split times were: -

3.8k Swim 1:15:36
180k Bike 7:59:23
42.2k Run 4:35:24

Ironman Total 14:04:36

I'm looking forward to receiving some photos and Chantal's version of events.

WELL DONE - Absolutely AWESOME result.
