Who we are...

Mounts Bay Harriers are the newest local Running, Triathlon and Athletics Club in Penwith, being set up by local triathletes and runners in June 2005. The club meets at Mounts Bay School every Monday at 7pm for social runs of varying lengths, with structured coached sessions on Thursdays at 7:30pm.

...and what we do!

The club now has over 200 members and regularly has 20-30 turning up for training sessions. Of the group that turn out there is always a wide standard of athletes from beginners, who are especially welcome, to accomplished triathletes and runners. The club also has a large junior section who meet on Friday nights at "The Dome" at Mounts Bay School, Heamoor.

Double Ironman Scott!!

I’m in! Crap what have I done? This is what I was thinking as my entry for the Double Iron UK was accepted. I had to remind myself why I thought I could do this.

OK for the swim, although it is 4.8 miles, it is in a pool so I just have to swim 25 metres 304 times. So obviously boredom is going to be a problem especially in training, but I had a foolproof plan, an underwater MP3 player, which I’m glad to say did the trick. Next issue was the 224 mile bike, well this should be a breeze as I’d already done the Welsh 12 hour Time Trial a couple of times and felt I would be strong at this part of the race. The big problem is the 52 mile run, I mean how do you prepare for a thing like this without getting injured?
