Due some of the biggest waves we have seen last year we had to forefit the Coasteer & Kayak elements, but the Sea Swim was a great challenge in itself with 3-4ft breakers to push through. Then contestants headed out on the beautiful Cornish Coastal path for the 7K run.
Slippery Fish were our 2016 winners with a team time of 1.01hrs.
Individual winner went to David Emery with a time of 58mins.
A tasty BBQ and Beers were enjoyed by all, followed the Juniors event including beach games and swim race!
