Alcudia in Majorca was the destination for 4 Wallasey AC athletes for a half ironman. In very warm weather of 35 degrees and against a field of over 2,500, the 4 men did very well. The swim was 1900m in the glorious bay of Alcudia followed by a very hilly 90.1km mile cycle and a baking hot half marathon run. John Thelwell beat some of the pros when he returned in a magnificent 04:53. Dave Walton also performed well for 05:36 as did Phil Cuthbert (06:04) and Paul Thelwell 06:39.
