Get the ultimate guide to destination racing

While he may have recently lost his place on the recently announced British Triathlon World Class Performance Programme for 2017, Adam Bowden is showing no intentions of slowing up just yet.

Having finished the 2016 season ranked no. 6 in the year-end Columbia Threadneedle Rankings, Adam made room for his Christmas turkey by running the fastest parkrun time of the day across the hundreds of events held all over the country covering the 5km course through the park in a speedy 14:44.
