On his first appearance at the IRONMAN World Championships last year, Reece Barclay made the Age-Group podium, collecting the coveted Umeke for finishing in fifth place in the 20-24 category.
That will be a much tougher task to match this time around, in his first year in the 25-29 division.
Joanne Murphy (www.tritalkingsport.co.uk) spoke to Reece ahead of Saturday’s race.
