What's coming up this weekend

Sneak preview of what our British triathletes are getting up to across the globe this weekend...

What: 2015 Antalya ETU Triathlon European Cup

When: Sunday 3 May

Where:  The standard distance race (1500m swim, 40km bike, 10km run) will take place on Turkey’s south-west coastline, Antalya.

Who: A number of British triathletes will go head to head this weekend in a bid for selection for the Rio 2016 test event in August, with two women’s and four men’s spots up for grabs.

With a number of athletes having already booked their places on the team, Emma Pallant is amongst those vying for a start. She’ll face competition from India Lee, fresh from returning from Alcobendas last weekend with a European duathlon bronze medal in tow.
The men’s race will likely see a tussle between Adam Bowden and Tom Bishop, ranked first and second respectively in the field. With Gordon Benson racing off the back of a successful European Cup in Melilla in March, competition is likely to be fierce.
