Top Age Category Finish for Angela Joiner-Handy

West Suffolk Wheeler & Triathlon Club member Angela Joiner- Handy competed in the prestigious and highly competitive Clumber Park Duathlon held on Saturday in Notts.

Competing in the Standard Distance (10k run/40k bike ride/5k run) the race also doubled up as one of 3 Age Group Qualification events for the ITU World Championships Standard Distance Duathlon to be held in Pontevera in Spain on the 31st May 2014.

Despite the cold and windy conditions, Angela posted a superb set of times, completing Run 1 in 41:50; transition 1 in 1:09; Bike Ride 1:13:04; T2 in 1:11; R2 in 21:50 to complete the event in an aggregate time of 2:19:03.

This gave Angela first position in her age category (F45-49) and 4th lady over all, guaranteeing her an age category qualification to the forthcoming World Championships, an event for which Angela had already pre qualified by virtue of the 2013 World Championships.
