Herts Hunt Dry Triathlon

We had an amazing turn out to the Herts Hunt Dry Tri on Sunday at Wakes End, and I am very grateful to Nicola Martin who stepped in, with her amazing Chocolate brownies at hand, acting as Tet Manager for the day as I was with the Senior girls at the Tetrathlon Ball. Katy was very busy supporting HHPC in the running of this Tri day, there is so much to do and we are grateful to have a Dry Tri event to close out the Tet season and support our competitors prepare for the Winter Tri Qualifiers.

As always this is a fun filled day with the riding being split across the two arenas, well done to all who competed.
