Overview

This totally traffic-free venue is the perfect way for anyone to start in the sport of triathlon, with a pool based swim, followed by a Velopark ride on smooth, flat tarmac and a flat parkland run. There is also a category for relay teams.

The swim, in the 25m pool is followed by between one and 13 laps on the super-smooth tarmac of the Velopark. The race finishes with a one or two lap run (depending on your category) on a fast parkland course. The run course is now exactly 2.5K per lap and the Sprint bike course has been extended to 19.5k to bring it as close as possible to the official sprint triathlon distance.
