Chris Panayiotou decided to stretch his racing legs to see if his winter training plan had delivered the goods. 

Louise Bardsley yet again demonstrates her racing prowess at the Steyning Sprint Tri and this is what she had to say…

The Steyning Sprint was my first Triathlon of the year, my first for Team TORQ, and my first time out on the eye-catching TORQ-ed up Wilier Twinfoil. 

The Dyfi Enduro is one of the UK’s most popular single lap enduro events, this year selling out with a full 750 entries in a record time of 62minutes after they went online! 

Last September Nick came 3rd in the World Championships, this time in the European Championships he went one better to finish 2nd. 

TORQ would like to congratulate Louise Bardsley on winning her age group at the English Duathlon Championships and here’s what she has to say…

The inaugural English Duathlon Championships held in the Derbyshire Peaks was my toughest race so far this season, both in terms of the course and the weather conditions, so I was delighted to be crowned English Age Group champion (30-34) and 5th overall across all age groups. 

The triathlon team have been racing a number of preparations races for their ‘A-races’ (coming up soon)…

Elite Duathlon Championships 25th March 2012

Nick Shasha got an invite to this exclusive elite race and this is what he had to say. 

The team headed to Dalby forest for round two of the British XC series, for what turned out to be some of the toughest race conditions that a UK National XC race has seen in a long while…

Dalby forest was a stark contrast to the round one venue in many way’s, with the biggest difference to Sherwood being the sheer number of significantly difficult, technical challenges which cropped up around pretty much every corner of the course. 

We haven’t updated you since our team photo shoot or the second round of the Midlands XC series and with so much happening since then, here’s a round up of what the team’s been up to over the past few weeks. 

Two of the team were racing the popular and competitive Chirk Triathlon last weekend. 

TORQ’s super-fast duathlete has been doing some speed work prior to European Duathlon Championships. 

Ian shows that he is a class act by completely dominating the event, leading from the gun to tape…

Having raced 3 times already this year on the Duathlon circuit, I decided to enter the sprint event as my final lung busting Duathlon prior to the start of the Triathlon season. 

Danielle Stewart has been recognised by British Triathlon, through her previous season’s results and has been added to the elite squad (11 in total).
