D20 Mendip President in Triathlon

 

Our visually impaired President, Helen McCann took part in the 30th Langport Triathlon.  She was supported by her guide runner Emily, and her guide dog Poppy.

For this event she had to swim 16 Lengths of a 25m indoor pool, followed by a 22.5 km tandem bike ride over a challenging rolling course involving hill climbs and stunning views and finished the course by running 5km where she was met by great applause. What a tremendous achievement, well done Helen! Mendip Inner Wheel is very proud of her.
