Steve Cruttenden: Fast man and RAF representative. Cool biker, with the most aero position that I have ever seen! Man, he used to be prone on his cross bar! He may have left the service?
Si Bellamy: About to undertake Staff College. Good coach and good triathlete also! Entered for the London Marathon for 2008 but pulled out due to injury.
Chris Moult: The quiet man of RAF Triathlon. Super vet (far better than me). Ran like the wind! I think he has left the Service (not to sell double glazing - that is Ted Moult for all you oldies out there who remember who that is!) and taken up a reclusive existence in a mountain hut in France.
John Crewe (JC): Quality triathlete who decided to go long and just kept going! Did IM France and not competed since. He has the legs of a 90 year old and the lungs of a 30 year old - he keeps breaking! Was meant to be doing London Marathon but his legs broke......again. He posts on the RAF Tri forum now and again so we may be able to entice him back into Tri. Last seen pretending to work at Cranwell.
Al Gill: An Armourer with no neck. Good swimmer, reasonable cyclist, doesn't particularly like running. However, on form, he could challenge the best. Last seen instructing at Cosford and about 3 stone over his racing weight. Knows far too many jokes - good guy to have on tour.
Dave Richardson: Good runner and was really progressing in triathlon. Disappeared a couple of years ago. Spotted at the Honington Road Relays looking relaxed and stating that he could not find the time to train for triathlon.
Steve Warner: Thanks for reminding me about Steve Debs! Steve was great fun and a good triathlete; if I remember, he was not a running fan but loved biking. Great sense of humour and, like Al Gill, the man to have on tour! Suffered some funny 'turns' as he got older! Had to be dragged from the water at the finish pontoon of a triathlon as his legs had gone floppy - I thought that was normal for all triathlon swims! Last seen at Lyneham dabbling in mountain biking.
