With the elite race enjoying its third year at Strathclyde Park, this event now warmly welcomes a mass participation event for all those who’ve been inspired to have at go at one of the world’s fastest growing sports.
This event welcomes both new and old to the sport of Triathlon. Whether you’re a regular on the triathlon race circuit or see 2010 as the year to take part in your first event this triathlon will be the perfect opener to your season.
The swim will take place in Strathclyde Park Loch before you head out on your bikes on the closed roads through the park. No triathlon would be complete without a hill or two so there are a few in the cycle stage just for good measure. Once you’re back to transition it’s out onto the run where you’ll take to the woodlands for undulating and enjoyable last stage of the race.
There are two distances you can compete in:
