Big news for two FitPlanet athletes in November.
Sarah Groff, professional triathlete, environmentalist, and Friend-of-FitPlanet, took 7th place in a time of 4:09:34 at this year’s Foster Grant Ironman World Championship 70.3 in Clearwater Florida, November 15.
Sarah was in the lead pack of elite women out of the water. The women’s winner was Julie Dibens of Great Britain, who came in just under four hours, setting a course record and breaking the 4-hour barrier.
And congratulations to Toby Radcliffe, FitPlanet’s Senior Consultant, Europe, who finished 27th overall at Ironman Arizona, November 22 in a time of 9:12:44.
Toby’s other recent accomplishment was working with the EDF Energy Birmingham Half Marathon, Birmingham England, to earn certification to the Council for Responsible Sport standard. Congratulations Toby!
