The Big Optometry Blog does the Big East Triathlon

Forgive yet another race report but It’s been a busy early season of Optical sport and fundraising for optical charities and people keep asking.

With the weekend of May 13/14 and the CooperVision London Revolution challenge for Optometry Giving Sight barely forgotten in my legs a new event loomed. Fundraising for the CooperVision project us still underway but The Big East Triathlon was on my radar.

The Big East is organised by Dengie Events over in Essex and it also organised the Fambridge Half Iron Tri which I have raced for Blind Veterans UKfor the last two years. Last year I had a big of a ‘mare with the Fambridge event. As I was wearing the Blind Veterans Kit I switched back to the Vision Aid Overseas kit for this race in the hope it would bring me good luck.
