Dyma stori Steven...📖 From his first duathlon in freezing Tadcaster conditions in 1989 to racing at the British Sprint Duathlon Championships this year, Steven’s journey in triathlon and duathlon has been incredible.

A former middle-distance runner, Steven discovered multisport after an ankle injury led him to cycling. He soon became hooked on duathlon, winning his first Welsh Duathlon title in 1994 at Maindy Velodrome before going on to finish 4th in his age group at the World Duathlon Championships in Tasmania later that year.

After stepping away from racing for several years, Steven returned to competition and, remarkably, claimed his second Welsh title 31 years after his first, still riding the same Giant Peloton 8200.

Most recently, Steven represented Tîm Tri Cymru at the British Sprint Duathlon Championships at Oulton Park, finishing 7th in his age group.

An incredible story of resilience, longevity and one very loyal bike 🚴 Read his full story here 👉 https://welshtriathlon.org/the-bike-thats-gone-the-distance-stevens-story/

Pob lwc to all athletes taking part in the first race of the Parc Bryn Bach Aquathlon Series tomorrow! 🙌 Set amongst the beautiful scenery of the Welsh valleys, the race features a 750m lake swim followed by a fast and flat 5km run around the lake. 🌊🏃

It’s set to be a fantastic evening of racing, good luck everyone and have fun!
