Triathlon Events

Below I have listed some events, which the club could attend next season.

Open water events

www.f3events.co.uk This is a series of events at Dorney Lake near Windsor (site of the 2012 Olympic rowing event) and it is about an hour & twenty minutes drive from Cirencester, less if the traffic is light. Completely flat traffic-free course but can be windy.

Upton-on-Severn – A river swim, down stream which is great for setting a new 1500m swim P.B. Fairly flat bike, flat run with some off-road.

Cotswold Sprint – Triathlons based at the water parks, duathlons in Cirencester Park. Also a ladies-only race in June (normally).

Pool based swims

Westonbirt – Corsham – Malmesbury. www.dcleisurecentres.co.uk
Marlborough www.conceptsport.co.uk
Wantage and Faringdon www.soll-leisure.co.uk
Mid week duathlon series plus Bath Triathlon www.bathamphibians.co.uk

All of the above events took place last year (2008 season) but I have not received the 2009 British Triathlon handbook at the time of writing so check out the web site given for any changes. I know some race organisers were thinking of putting on extra events and some of cancelling their event.
