Joined by professional triathlete and rising star Lucy Charles and Olympic open-water swimmer Jack Burnell, the group were put through their paces with a number of challenges at Alton Towers Water Park.<\/p>\n
The athletes took an initial timed run down the slide, before being given the chance to spend \u00a350 each to upgrade their HUUB products to increase their overall speed.<\/p>\n
The second part of the HUUB Waterslide Challenge will be released in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n
Alistair Brownlee said: \u201cJonny and I have a lot of experience in high pressure endurance competition, but I can safely say this was a first for us. More than anything we all wanted to win! It was freezing cold but we all forgot that when the competition started.\u201d<\/p>\n

HUUB founder Dean Jackson: \u201cAll of our elite level ambassadors think they are the quickest, so we thought we would even the playing field and see who could cope with a few new situations! HUUB is all about using science and technology to gain an advantage so we thought we would try out a few new ideas with the guys!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
