Looking back on my first year of triathlon, the biggest surprise was the England race in the Lake District. Easily the most enjoyable event of the season — probably because I was focused on getting around the stunning course rather than chasing a specific time, along with a somewhat unconventional format.
For this one, I upgraded to the Vanguard trisuit — comfortably the best-fitting and most breathable suit I’ve raced in so far, and a big upgrade from what I used at Bolton. It held up really well over a long day and made the whole experience that bit more enjoyable.
I’m now fortunate to be a Tri Fit affiliate this season, and the Vanguard is currently in their Black Friday clearance, along with great kit like the Rapid X goggles. Link in bio if you want to take a look.
Should I take on the Roc again in 2026???
