Junior Triathlon 2016

Welcome to the second West Suffolk Wheelers and Triathlon Club Junior Triathlon. This will be held at Culford School, Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, IP28 6TX on 3rd July 2016.

There will be prizes for each age group boy and girl novice as well as top 3 prizes for each age group and gender.

Race Distances

The Junior event is open to the following BTF age-groups and will cover approximate distances of:

TriStar - Start - 8 years - 50m swim - 850m cycle - 600m run
TriStar 1 - 9-10 years - 150m swim - 1.7k cycle - 1200m run

All ages are as of 31st December 2016.

Please note that the cycle course is all on grass - we advise against road bikes with slick tyres. Mountain bikes and cyclo cross bikes, with a slightly knobbly tyre tread, are appropriate for this course. Our marshals will carry out a check on your bike before racking in transition to ensure that it is in full working order. Wearing a cycle helmet, during the cycle stage, is mandatory - you will not be able to race without one.

Race Costs

Entry for each competitor is £17.

British Triathlon members pay a reduced fee of £16. You will need to enter your membership number and bring your race licence with you on the day and show at registration.
