Three triathletes from Mid Sussex Tri Club completed 70.3 Ironman events – two in Italy and one in Serbia.

Sally Gardner and Susan Baker competed the 70.3 Ironman in hot conditions around the beach town of Cervia in Emilia-Romagna

The course saw the athletes smashing through a 2k sea swim, a 80k bike route and a 21k run.

And they managed it in style: Sally in 6 hours 54 with Susan not far behind in 7 hours 45.

Not to be out-done Lyndsey Reeves was competing a short hop away in Serbia and finished her event in an impressive 6 hours 6 minutes.

Huge congratulations to them all for finishing, and for smiling to the end!

Lyndsey said: "Swimming in Ardingly trained me well for this event!”
