What a great time we all had and with a view of the Vale of Clwyd to die for. Gareth, Iona and Rhian had worked so hard to prepare the course and our thanks go to them.

There were 42 competitors entered, twenty seven were Flint and Denbigh members. A number of them were first timers. They did the Hunter trial course on the Saturday (in glorious sunshine) and then the shooting, swimming and running on Sunday.

There were 12 teams entered.

  • Equal first place was shared by two Flint and Denbigh teams “The Ladies” (Meg Goodey, Sali Wheway, Mia Roberts and Neisha Roberts) and
  • Equal first place, “Take That” boys (Ben Read, Archie McParland, Huw Jones and Ted Evans).
  • Third were Tanatside and
  • Fourth were the Denbigh “Spice Girls” (Ceri Jones, Megan Woodcock, Georgia Jones and Steph Parsley.

The Inter District competition (Llandyrnog, Llanasa, Llysfaen and Cefn) created a great deal of “friendly” rivalry and was won by

  • Llandyrnog closely followed by
  • Cefn, then
  • Llanasa and
  • Llysfaen.

In the Individual competition :-

  • Ted Evans must be bionic because he won his class with top bean bags, run and swim !
  • Jac Evans won his class and had top swim.
  • Jac Cernyw, Huw Jones and Rhys Cernyw were also placed.
  • Megan Woodcock, Emily McParland and Orlagh Toner were placed 2nd, 3rd and 4th respectively in the Mini Girls.
  • Mia Roberts and Ceri Jones were 2nd and 3rd in their class.
  • Sali Wheway won the Beginners class and shows great promise.
  • Elliot Goodey achieved the highest shoot score of the competition once again and 6 top shoot medals went to F and D members.

All Flint and Denbigh competitors won a prize of some sort and went home smiling.

Next Triathlon is in Mold October 27th 2012. Come and have a go!!
