Louise battled hard, but after a problematic swim, battling the changing tide, the deficit was just too big. 

Off season running events are the staple diet of most triathletes and duathlete’s training plans. 

Louise qualified for both the aquathlon and triathlon age group world championships taking place in Aukland, New Zealand this year. 

Ian competed in his last race of the season and what a successful year it has been? 

TORQ’s very talented super veteran again beat a lot of younger triathletes at Ludlow in a sprint competition, this despite the fact that his natural focus is on the longer distances (he’s only just completed Ironman Wales)…

After what has seemed to be a very long race season, it was time for my last triathlon of the year. 

Two of our high performance squad stepped up to race at the ITU World Duathlon Championships in Nancy, France…

Nick Shasha: The World Duathlon Championships of 2012 took place in Nancy, France – the same venue as the European champs of 2010.  

What a fantastic opportunity to race the famous Brands Hatch circuit on our trusy TORQ Twinfoils. 

A lot of people would baulk at the idea of doing an Ironman, Dave has now done 11 including the World Championship numerous times. 

We’ve had another top performance by Nick Shasha at the massive London Duathlon…

This duathlon in Richmond Park (the world’s largest with over 3,000 competitors) has become an annual event for me and I’ve only missed one event since the very first race.  

With an Ironman around the corner, Dave Mawhinney decided to cut the training volume and add some intensity. 

The second edition of the Shrewsbury Triathlon was recently held here in Shropshire and with TORQ sponsoring the event, we were hoping for some strong results, which of course we delivered…

Come and say ‘hello’ at the TORQ stand

James Emery: As with Dave, I found the swim easy and fast (the Shrewsbury Triathlon would be an excellent race for the nervous open water swimmer, all downstream and only 500m). 

TORQ’s super-team of Chris, Louise, Danielle and Ian were all really looking forward to racing the National Triathlon Club Relays, as it would be their first race together as a team.
