The headwind from Garve to Achnasheeen did not suit Siobhan who worked hard to record a very respectable cycle time of 7:09:54

Powerful and concentrated running particularly early on allowed Siobhan Prise to first regain the lead and then to cement her place at the front of the race.

A strong run from dutch athlete Karin Sloove made it one of the most closely fought women’s race ever but although Karin was able to pass Marie Meldrum, Prise’s running was proving to strong.
A happy Siobhan Prise at the finish line. Although Susanne Buckenlei finished with a quicker time in 2012 it was over the shorter course so Prise's exceptional race was rewarded with a deserved record time. Congratulations.
