The club also supported the Outlaw Sprint Triathlon at Thoresby which saw a good battle between dad, Tony Alcock and daughter Charlotte, who had Tony worried as she was still leading nearly halfway through the 5k run.

Tony managed to get a 55 second lead and finish third in the 50-59 category and Charlotte first 15-19 female.

This was a two-day event with the Half Iron Man on the Sunday.

Mansfield Triathlon Club supported the race by volunteering on one of the run feed stations, which was well received in the hot weather.

Louise Worthington did her first sprint triathlon (750m swim, 22km cycle and 5km run) at Belvoir Castle, near Grantham. On a very hilly course she finished 40th/129th overall and sixth female in age category 40-49
