Do you have children that can't wait to become a triathlete? Make a weekend of it and enter them in the UK Kids Fun Triathlon on Saturday 9th June for 5-16 yr olds.
Yet again the Kids event was full and over-subscribed in 2017 with around 900 participants so avoid disappointment book early.
Unfortunately due to the venue being a school playing field, there are no dogs allowed on the site.

Ideal novice Sprint triathlon
Really nervous doing this as it was my first, out of the 14 in my briefing group all of us were novices! The event was well organised and welcoming, not too big or scary. Loved the bike course in the sunshine, the run was hard work in the heat!
