At last night's prize ceremony, Great Britain was awarded a massive trophy for the most age group titles at the ITU Duathlon World Championships. The only problem is....how will Jasmine get it on the plane home?!! Needless to say, there was much celebrating amongst the age groupers until well into the night last night!

Full age group results are available at http://www.fitri.it/

The final day saw sunshine for the first two races and torrential rain for the final Junior and under 30s. The GB age group team increased its medal haul by a further two golds; Dan Corner in 25-29 and Chrissie Radon in 20-24 and three bronzes; Helen Titterington in 30-34, Juliette Clark in 35-39 and Martin Roscoe in 35-39.

The elite teams also picked up the Team gold for both Elite Women and Elite Junior Women. Well, actually, Jasmine Flatters picked up the medals for them because nobody from the Elite team came along (apparently the organisers had told them the wrong time and we have since been told that they did come to support the age group races in the afternoon).

The outdoor awards ceremonies had to be stopped because of the rain, thunder and lightning but the main awards will take place later this evening. The total GB treasure chest after three days of competition was NINE individual Gold medals, TWO team Gold medals, TWO silvers and FIVE bronzes placing the GB team in a league of its own.

Special thanks to Jasmine for updating these pages while I've been doing referee and draftbusting duties.
