About
What are we all about? We are all about great sporting events! From Triathlons to Marathons, 5k, 10k or 10miles, Aquabikes, Aquathlons & Ultra Runs. Putting onto the map events in superb locations with fantastic routes, that are up hill and down dale & even through the occasional wood. All of the events that we stage come with the guarantee of no-nonsense fun & are known for being the friendliest & most welcoming for novices & beginners - as well as ensuring a first class well organised event .
Triathlons
Triathlons are the test of human spirit and endurance, in and out of the water, some blood, sweat and gears then a run in the sun (we hope). It's about reaching targets and goals and beating PB's. Triathlons come in different shapes and sizes, the more common being that of the pool-based Triathlon. Our inaugural event, Louth Triathlon, set in a beautiful north Lincolnshire location in 2014 was a sprint event & received an excellent race report & fantastic feedback from the competitors.
Our 1st Open Water event set at the stunning Tallington Lakes, near Stamford, was a huge success & is bound to grow. Lincolnshire Tri Series is made up of Grantham Triathlon, Skegness Triathlon & Louth Triathlon - all pool based super sprint & sprint distance. And we have added Aquathlons (swim run) & Aquabike (swim bike) into all our triathlon events to make these multi sport events accesible for all.
Running
If you enjoy rural bliss then try our trail runs.
The Longhorn is a 5k, 10k, half marathon, marathon, 50k & 60k ultra event in April & attracted over 1500 competitors in 2019 across the 5 distances. The family element of the 5k run or walk makes it a very friendly event.
Thoresby 10 is an Autumn themed race in October offering 5k, 10k & 10mile distances.
Running through beautiful trails in woodland, rural countryside & past the lake leaves lasting memories. Both races at Thoresby Park, Nottinghamshire.
Ashbourne Seesaw on the Tissington Trail in Derbyshire in March across 5k, 10k & 10miles.
Grimsthorpe Gallop - a beautiful trail run at Grimsthorpe Castle in Lincolnshire in June - you can choose 5k, 10k, 10miles or half marathon
NEW EVENTS are being planned for 2020 - so watch this space!
We have put together a fantastic diary that gives you everything from triathlons (supersprint, sprint & standard distance), aquathlons, family friendly 5k runs & marathons. So there is something for everyone.
Our events.
We have put a lot into making our events safe - not just meetings with land owners and authorities, it's about getting out there and testing the course to ensure it feels safe to swim, bike or run. If we wouldn't do it, we wouldn't put it on as an event. At each event you will find a number of services helping the event run smoothly:
- SBR Events Set Up Team
- Volunteer Marshals with Team Leaders
- Medical Team
- Chip Timing Team
- Course Signage
These make sure that you have a safe journey through our events. If you enjoy an event please tell us why. If you come away from an event and feel that we didn't quite hit the mark, please get in touch and tell us- it helps us to improve things for next year.
We are striving to offer everyone - no matter what their level or ability - a day to remember & a day to feel proud of their achievements. We love making happy memories!
See you soon - Amanda, David, Calsie & the SBR Events Team
