The following post race mail went out to all Cotswold Classic 2019 Competitors this morning:
Cotswold Classic Post race email
Good morning all, I hope everyone’s on the road to recovery from yesterday’s racing, and got a decent nights sleep last night ?
Firstly, and most importantly, I just wanted to say thanks for everyone that came racing with us yesterday. The race is only as good as the competitors that line up, and you were all an awesome bunch, so thank you.
In this email, I’ll cover the following :
How fast you went and how you looked doing it
Feedback request
Fancy racing with us again this year
Next year’s races
How fast you went and how you looked doing it
I get this is probably the only bit you’re interested in, so I’ll do this bit first
You can find yesterday’s results at :
We had Charles Whitton Photography there yesterday, and in a couple of days when he’s sorted through all the pics, you will be able to find them at :

We have prepaid a couple of pics for each of you, which will show under the free downloads section, and he’ll them have plenty more you can choose from
Feedback request
Later this week, we’ll have a team debrief on the weekend, and pick through every single element in some detail to see what worked and what didn’t. However, from our side, we only see one angle of the race, so we rely on you all, as the people that experience the day from the competitor side, to feedback to us what you think worked well and you liked, or what you think can be improved on. With that in mind, I would love some feedback from you all please, as it’s making these changes and tweaks every year that helps us keep moving in an upwards path in trying to provide a great Middle Distance race for you all.
Don’t worry about hurting our feelings, we want you to nit pick and let us know anything you think we weren’t great at so we’ll see what we can change, and at the same time, let us know what you enjoyed or liked about the day, and we’ll see what we can do more of ?
You feedback is really important to us, and very much appreciated
Fancy racing with us again this year
Did you know the 113 team also organise the Nationwide Building Society Swindon Half Marathon, which is on Sept 22nd this year and this is going to be its last year ?.
It has all the touches of our Triathlons, but without getting wet or needing a bike, and on a flat and fast course with 100% closed roads.
Entries are still open at www.newswindonhalf.co.uk
2020 Triathlon Dates
We are provisionally working on June 7th and August 2nd for our Cotswold113 and Cotswold Classic Triathlons next year.
These dates will be fixed in the next couple of weeks, and entries will open at www.113events.com on Sept 1st
Right, that’s it from me for newsletters
We’ll be back down the lake today to get the clear up and storage of everything underway, so if you’re still in the area and have anything you’ve left behind, today’s the best day to do it.
I’m back to my day job for a couple of days this week after that, although I’m still here to help if there’s anything you need from us
Thanks again for choosing to race with us this year, and thanks for all being one of the best groups of competitors we’ve had at a race so far (And bringing us good racing weather too)
Cheers and happy recovery
