King Gets Her Sprint Legs Back
Even heavy rain could not dampen the spirits of Liz King from new local triathlon club Tri Spirit Team as she took on the Bexhill Sprint Triathlon run by Team Lifestyle.
The event a 500m sea swim in very choppy conditions followed by 25km bike ride and a 5km run had King chasing the heels of the lead women which included Pro triathlete Yvette Grice winner of this year’s Ironman UK.
King returning to the shorter distance racing after many years of Ironman competitions held her own and came a very respectable 3rd in her age group and 10th female over all in a time of 1.29.36.
King said: “I’m well chuffed with my time and hopefully this will mean a good base for next year’s season.”
