The FINAL RACE INFORMATION can be found on this website page as a PDF. Please read this document carefully & click onto the ONLINE participant list to check all your personal details are correct.

Swim starts will be from 9:15am-12.20pm

Successful & made popular in previous years by another organisation, SBR Events have taken over the running of the event and will be the second year of hosting! We've added aquathlon, aquabike & super sprint distance into the event to make it inclusive to everyone. 

The venue & course remains the same as the past few years. Swim is the Meres Leisure Centre in Grantham, a clean and modern 8 lane 25m heated pool with a 400 seat spectator area. Swim starts are based on your predicted swim time with slowest swimmers going in the first waves ( A wave has 1 person starting in each lane). For Sprint distance complete 16 lengths. Moving through transition you cross the bike mount line & make your way out of the leisure centre facility onto a mini roundabout & head through the Lincolnshire town & countryside.  The bike section is a 2 lap course with a few undulations to enjoy.

The run takes you around part of the town immediately around the leisure centre on a 2 lap course. The water station is positioned so you can get liquid refreshment half way around the 2 lap course.

For SuperSprint distance only 1 lap of the bike & 1 lap of the run course will be required after 8 lengths of the pool.

We have added aquabike & aquathlon to all our triathlon events (Sprint distance) - so if you fancy a shorter race over the swim / run or swim / bike elements you can enter this race. Held on the same day, you will go into the usual waves of the triathlon race & head from the pool straight onto the run OR bike before crossing the finish line to grab your medal. We think this is a great way to try a multi-sport race.

• 1st part of the Lincolnshire Triathlon Series
