*Harlech: NWRRC member Steve Gardner competed for GOG Triathlon on Sunday in the Welsh sprint duathlon champs in Harlech. After the event he said: “I was very happy with my first run, then Andrew Haines from Risca Triathlon club Cardiff blew me away on the bike. I managed to pull time back in transition and on the last run to finish 2nd MV 60 just 5 seconds behind Andrew.” These were Steve’s final results: R1:20:28,B:45:33,R2:10:04. Total:1:18:02:
