Gold at the National Biathlon Championships 2008
Five of the clubs Biathletes made the trip to Macclesfield on the 18th of May for the National Biathlon Championships having all qualified from the regionals earlier in the year. Making a change from the usual wet, cold, dank weather the athletes usually have,’ they had the luxury of a sunny, warm day in which to compete. Swimmming first, everyone one performed close to their best, meaning they were all well placed going into the run. With the sun still out, but the wind picking up everyone ran superbly with either pb’s or close to.
It was glorious gold for Ryan Powell (18th in individual) in the Boys B team event, with Catherine Lough 10th, Jazz Malcom 16th, Rachael Seaman 22nd, Dan Seagrove-Castle 24th.
Congratulations also to Catherine for the tremendous achievement of being selected again to represent GB at the European Youth B Championships – Dublin, 2nd – 7th July 2008
