Great running from Paul, Scott & Matthew at the Lliswerry 8 this morning. Strong efforts all round and even the rain held off! πͺπ
There were even some piranha marshals out on the course cheering them on! π£π₯³
Well done all!! ππ»ππ»
The 2026 races start here!
Good luck to Scott, Paul & Eden at the Lliswerry 8 tomorrow β a fast course, brilliant marshals (written with absolutely no bias whatsoever ππ), and the perfect reminder that our idea of a relaxing Sunday isβ¦ questionable at best.
Have a cracking run and may the Welsh weather be kind! ππ»πͺπ¦οΈ

πͺπΈπͺ LUKE. WORLD CHAMPS. DONE. πͺπͺπΈ
From the first splash to the final stride, Luke raced with fire, focus, and full Piranha pride. Marbella threw down heat, hills, and world-class competitionβand Luke rose to it all.
But this wasnβt a solo mission. Behind every kilometre was a crew of legends: cheering, supporting, and lifting the vibe. To the team on the groundβyour energy was electric. π£β€οΈ
To Lukeβyour finish was fierce.
Ironman 70.3 World Championships: conquered. π₯π€©π₯
