30/05/2008  Geoff Brewster takes European Bronze Medal at ETU Duathlon Championships - Serres - Greece  details
At the European ETU Duathlon Championships in Serres - Greece Club Athlete Geoff Brewster took the Bronze Medal in the Mens 50-55 Age Group. With conditions being extremely tough for GB athletes, with air temperatures in the high 20s degree centigrade the environment proved very hard for those competing. The athletes who competed on Serres's race track were faced with a flat course which made for some excellent racing, with little opportunity for drafting, and some extremely fast times. The Team of just over 50 athletes won 11 Gold, 8 Silver and 7 Bronze medals.
