#GBKona 2017 Age-Groupers: Meet John, Paul and Huw

Based in South Wales, Wuusss Tri (www.wuussstri.co.uk) has only been in existence for a few years – and yet have three athletes qualified for the 2017 IRONMAN World Championship.

At Tuesday’s Parade of Nations I spoke to John Littlewood, Paul Thomas and Huw Jones about how they got to Hawaii, hopes for Saturday’s race – and whether there is any competition between the trio.
