Eimear Mullan (Corley Cycles-Body Limits Trade Team member)has continued her strong start to the 2010 season with a excellent performance to finish third at the National Elite Duathlon Championships at Loughborough.

2010 has started well for Eimear, she has already shown great form by winning the TCR 10K and was even more impressive in holding off multiple World Age Group Champion Emma Dews to take the British Duathlon title (Clumber Classic) at the beginning of March.

Scott Neyedli set a national record in finishing second to Patrick Vernay at the Ironman Australia triathlon championships at Port Macquarie (28th March 2010). This was another great result for Scott (following his second place finish at IM Western Australia in Dec 2009), and vindication for his decision to remain in Australia training specifically for this event through the winter.

Vernay lifted the title for the fourth year in a row when completing the course in 8hr 23min 54sec. Scott was slightly quicker than Vernay after the swimming and cycling stages, but lost ground in the early part of the run. Scott rallied strongly, however, and closed to within 40sec of Vernay at one point during the marathon, but dropped back again in the later stages to take second place in 8:27:58.

Scott was proud of his performance, immediately vowing that he’ll be back next year. “I’m lost for words. I ran with my heart and gave it my best shot.”
