In a field which consisted of many top triathletes including the Australian, Brenden Sexton, who finished 35th in the London 2012 Olympics less than a month ago, the start was fast and frantic as you can expect.
Elliott came home in 26th overall with a time of 58.24 in an event which was altered slightly to a duathlon following water quality problems in the Stratclyde Loch which meant that the event would consist of a 1.3km run, 20km cycle and a 5km run to finish. Elliott was less than eight seconds shy of the time of outright winner, Richie Nicholls.
The 17-year old took a well earned nouriSH me now upon completion of the race which will keep him in top shape ready for his next outing which comes this weekend in the Bala Standard Distance Triathlon in Wales where he'll be looking to improve on his 13th place finish from last year.
Well done Elliott!
