Finishing the half Iron Man course in a time of 3hrs 54mins, James completed a 1.2 mile swim in 24mins 44secs, a 56 mile bicycle race in 2hrs 6mins followed by a 13 mile run in 1hr 19mins. With 149 athletes competing in his age group (30-34yrs) James was some five minutes ahead of his nearest rival and also emerged as overall fastest from all age groups where a total of 1457 athletes started the course. A separate event for professional tri-athletes was held at the same time and James, who has a full time job in local government in Poole, would have finished 22nd in that competition. A truly phenomenal performance!http://dorsetasa.org/Disciplines/Masters/Index.shtmlDecember, Thu 5 2010 14:33:50 GMTHeadlinehttp://dorsetasa.org/images/headlines/james.jpgA Club Development evening for Dorset clubs to discuss club development, how the ASA can provide support and Swim21 issues will be held at the Thomas Hardye LC, Dorchester on Wednesday 12 January 2011 from 6pm to 9pm.
