Apologies for the massive delay, but below are a handful of pics from the Toughman Half Iron Triathlon . As previously mentioned I was working over the race weekend, but did manage to get some photos in throughout race day:
I would have had more pics during the bike leg, but we were crazy busy as the athletes came into T2 - controlled chaos in that last 1/4 mile! It was tough to have my iPhone out and at the ready while working and racing around all morning.
Great feedback from athletes post-race as well. Always encouraging to hear kudos from people that are racing. Makes all the hard work and lack of sleep that weekend well worth it.
