Plenty of fun on the Run-Bike-Run!

This will consist of a 1km run, followed by a 5km cycle followed by another 1km run - leaving out the swimming component of a traditional triathlon.

It will be a fun and non-competitive event for children who have been inspired by Olympian Alex Yee and would like to try out two of the three elements of triathlon.

Both disciplines will take place on the athletics track, ensuring those people taking part won’t have to contend with roads or other members of the public.

For this event we will be running two waves.

• 10am start will be for children aged 6-10
• 11.30am start will be for children aged 10-14.

To take part it’s £10 per entry and the closing date to join is 11.55pm on Wednesday 20th August.

Registration for this event is now open, so why not sign up today? Follow this link - https://www.britishtriathlon.org/events/Swim-Bike-Run-Mini-Catford_16764

Participants will be required to bring their own equipment (nothing will be provided on the day) and will be required to wear helmets when cycling around the track. All types of bikes are welcome (no e-bikes).

There is a spectator area so whoever you chose to bring along will be able to cheer you on as you take part in this mini duathlon.
