Hosted by Thoresby Park, the 70.3-mile triathlon was raced over a 1.2-mile lake swim, a 56-mile bike course around Nottinghamshire, and a picturesque 13.1-mile run through the historic grounds.

Stuart Gutteridge celebrated after completing this year with a haul of five medals – one for each of the events completed this year – Outlaw Half, Holkham Half, Outlaw full and Outlaw X – and another for completing the whole Outlaw season.
