Race report from Josh and Megan Kelly
Q. Why did you want to do a triathlon?
A. Josh – I was inspired by my parents doing them all the time! (Ha ha, I’ll give you the £20 later! – Tina)
A. Megan – To be fitter!
Q. What did you think of your first triathlon?
A. Josh – People need to be more careful in the swimming bit.
A. Megan – It was quite good.
Q. What was the worst bit?
A. Josh – Almost drowning when I was swum over multiple times!
A Megan – The run, I got a stitch on my first lap, but then I thought of Mo Farah and I thought I have to do this!
Q. What was the best bit?
A. Josh – Hmm, pouring the water over my head (at the water station on the run) it was refreshing and gave me an energy boost.
A. Megan – The bike because it was really easy and I was really hot coming out of the pool so it cooled me down.
Q. Would you do another triathlon?
A. Josh – Yes.
A. Megan – Yes, definitely.
Q. What would you say to any kid wanting to do a triathlon?
A. Josh – Make sure you keep up the pace with everyone else in the swim.
A. Megan – Don’t be nervous, there’s nothing to worry about!
Josh later on …. Where’s my £20 then? J
