While Sunday’s London Marathon was the biggest sporting participation event in the U.K. this past weekend, there was significant British triathlon interest at last Monday’s Boston Marathon.

That event represented the first step on the (racing) recovery journey for Tim Don, following his terrible bike accident and resulting broken neck just prior to the 2017 IRONMAN World Championship in Hawaii.
