Cameron Bremner puts pen to paper on his race report for the Laguna Phuket Triathlon, 6th December 2009 - 1800m, 55km, 12km
It all started when my brother thought it would be a good idea to enter us both into the Laguna Phuket Triathlon. Brilliant i thought! - who in their right mind is going to turn down a free entry into a race (maybe its the Scotsman in me). At the time i knew little or nothing about the race itself except it was listed in one of the triathlon magazines as one to do before you hang up your race suit/bike/race flats.
After a little google-ing i found out that the race is in Thailand, has been running for 15years and has had some big names in the past, for what is essentially only a little longer than olympic distance race. The course itself is unusual. An 1800m non-wetsuit swim that is in two parts, 1200m sea swim followed by a 600m swim in a freshwater lagoon with an 80m dash across sand in between. The bike is 55km with a series of 4 climbs around the 8km mark that can significantly dent your race. And finally a 12km run on a two lap at course that is mostly around a golf course.
