Richard Campbell writes…

“The Swim went well, got a good clean start and just rolled through. The bike was tough with a head wind out and a tail wind home, not Dunedin afternoon NE wind strong, but strong. Managed to hang in there. Then onto the run managed to hold it together and keep it neat to the finish. Not fast but solid. Thanks for all your messages of support. It was nice to see the young Leith (and/or Leith associates) lads there Dan Hayman, Harrison Shaw and Joseph Scott.”
