Nathan wins his 2nd Mini-Series

Nathan Tweedie won his 2nd Mini-Series race this year, but had to fight to hold off the fast-approaching Steve Giles to take the honours by just 2 seconds!

Nathan was first out of the water in 4:11. Richard Rollings and Richard Nixon followed 80 seconds later with a further 25 seconds before Neil Fyfe led the main pack out.

Nathan then had a lonely ride, coming into T2 in 28.37 giving him a 1:32 minute cushion on Steve Giles, who came in with Chris Brennan and Dave Thorold. First lady Christina Cork was just behind this trio in 5th place.

Steve then had the fastest run of the day and nearly caught Nathan, who held on in spite of being over a minute down on his best run time.

Chris held onto 3rd with Steve Coward coming through into 4th and Dave 5th. With half a mile to go Christina was still in 6th, but was then overtaken by Tracey McCartney who came in first lady in a new ladies record run split of 22.29 minutes and a Personal Best overall time.
