GO TRI Local is for people that are brand new to swim, bike and run and looking to take their first steps in a safe and enjoyable environment. GO TRI Local takes place within the heart of your community; at the same time, on the same date, at the same place, with the same distances every month allowing you to track your progress over time.Triathlon England is working with selected delivery partners to hold the first GO TRI Local pilots in Leicestershire, Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire. GO TRI Local Milton Country Park is a monthly opportunity for new and aspiring triathletes to come and give a triathlon/duathlon (which consists of run, bike, run) a go in a fun and non-competitive environment, with a fully off road course enclosed within Milton Country Park. Those aged 8-14 years old will do 50m open water swim, 2.5km cycle and finish with a 500m run, starting at 10am. Those aged 15+ will do a 100m or 200m swim (you can chose on the day), 4.25km cycle and finish with a 1km run, starting at 9am. If you decide that you are not up for swimming there will be the option to add a run in instead of the swim at the start and do a duathlon. We will be running Go Tri Active sessions through the summer to introduce people to the open water. If the water temperature is below 11 degrees on the day we will be unable to swim and the format will be duathlon for all. This will be communicated in the weeks leading up to the event. Please check out the open water swimming page on the Milton Country Park website for more information on swimming at the park, water temperatures and opportunities to swim in the lake. Juniors will be required to wear a wetsuit regardless of temperature but adults have the option above 16 degrees C.
