Rob Wilson was once again in action at the weekend as he took to the start line of Ironman Wales. Tackling the elements and the epic race distance of 1.2 mile swim, 112 mile bike and 26.2 mile full marathon run Wilson built on a strong swim and bike to cross the line in a superb time of 10:34:27. Elsewhere, the penultimate round of the club time trial league saw seven Team Trisports athletes...

The children also had...
