MudMan Duathlon 2015 – in pics
Louise Fox and Callum Hughes win Human Race Off-Road Series finale in Camberley, Surrey last weekend
Clear skies and moderate temperatures greeted more than 800 athletes at the MOD grounds in Camberley, Surrey last weekend, though there were still plenty of muddy puddles – Peppa Pig would have loved it…
Consisting of a 7.5km trail run, 15km off-road bike and another 7.5km run, the MudMan Duathlon saw fierce competition as befitting the finale of the Human Race Off-Road Series.
In the men’s race, Callum Hughes was riding high as winner of the IceMan Duathlon four weeks earlier, and by T2 had built himself a formidable lead – one that he didn’t squander on the final run, taking first place with a time of 1:49:14
Thomas Elwood followed just a few minutes behind making him second today. Johan Olivier (Ful-On Tri) completed the top three. Callum can add the Human Race Off-Road Series Duathlon Champion to his collection of titles. Ross Smith(Bournemouth AC) and Jon Heasman (Thames Turbo) were second and third across the entire series. An incredible effort over a tough series by all three.
In the women’s race, Louise Fox – female winner of the IceMan Duathlon one month previously – maintained her winning ways despite a tight race to take gold in a time of 2:07:40. Not far behind was Fay Cripps who grabbed second place and the series title, with Elizabeth Doyle crossing the line third.
