On the racing front, four hotly contested races were on offer:
Olympic race
After 1500m of swimming, 40km on the bike and an epic 10km run, it was GB triathlete David Bishop who emerged victorious as he blitzed his competitors with an incredible time of 1:50:44. Bishop beat Chris Silver who finished in second place and David Hynes, who finished third.
Emerging out of the water and exiting T1 in first position, Bishop became the hot favourite to win the race. However, as the athletes returned into the Roald Dahl Plass following the challenging 40km bike leg, David Hynes had cut Bishop’s lead to just 18secs.

Not wanting to be beaten Bishop put on the burners during the 10km run, recording an astonishing time of 31:11mins. This eventually saw him run out as the clear winner finishing 2mins ahead of his nearest challenger.
“It was a great race to be a part of,” said Bishop afterwards. “This could definitely become an ITU event in the future.”
In the female race it was Eloise Crowley who was first home with an unbelievable time of 2:07:52, after leading from start to finish. The Cardiff-born athlete went on to win the first ever Cardiff Triathlon 33secs ahead of nearest challenger, Caroline Higgins.
Sprint race
The Cardiff Triathlon Sprint race saw Tomos Nesham and Hollie Elliott emerge as individual winners of the male and female races. Both stormed around the course in fantastic times of 58:26mins and 1:05:39 respectively.
