A teenage triathlete has been training in a paddling pool in his garden in freezing temperatures - but spends more time putting on his wetsuit than training due to the cold.

Struan Bennet, 16, from Milnathort, Kinross-shire, has his sights set on the junior ETU European Triathlon championships which takes place in Austria in June.

He first needs to compete in a selection race going ahead in Llanelli, Wales, in May.
