Entries for the triathlon relays in Nottingham now open
Info on the relays and how to sign up
Evening Serpies,
The Triathlon Relay Championships (formerly "National Club Triathlon Relays") are held every year near Nottingham at the National Watersports Centre. The race has a unique format with teams of four taking it in turns to complete each leg. When all 4 have completed the 500m swim, they then move to a 15k bike and finish with a 5k run.
This year they take place on a single day Saturday 25th August leaving you the rest of the bank holiday weekend to bask in the glory of completing a triathlon. Ask anyone who's done them and they will tell you this is the most fun you can have doing triathlon.
Further details on the website link below including the sign up page.

Sign up is £20 which coves half your entry fee with the club paying the rest. The club will send as many teams as enter. Some of the smaller clubs send 10 or more teams so it would be great to have a big Serpie turnout. Alothough there is competition for national titles we are mostly aiming to complete and have fun.
Any questions, please ask to triathlon@serpentine.org.uk
Alternatively i'll be in the club room this Wednesday 7th and on the 21st for anyone who wants to ask questions.
