Steve Rastall igroup MD, successfully completes Cholmondeley Triathlon

The sun shone brightly for Steve Rastall’s first triathlon at Cholmondeley castle, on Saturday 22^nd June.

Thousands of spectators came out in full force to support first time and amateur triathletes

The castle starter tri is a short distance entry point and participants-many of whom were first time triathletes-enjoyed a 200m open water swim, 14km bike and 2km run.

Craig Williams was the quickest man to cross the finishing line with a time of 50:51, following a strong swim taking 4:37.

After a shaky swim taking 6:44, Steve made great time on the bike ride, being the third fastest and this allowed him to go from 26^th to finish 7^th overall, achieving 3^rd in his class.

Steve raised £600 for the British Heart Foundation, in memory of his mum Moira, who died in 2018.

Reflecting on the event, Steve said, “It was a great event and helping the British Heart Foundation gave it a personal focus for me. This was my first Tri, but definitely not my last.”
