The LBT Junior Aquathlon, sponsored by Switalskis Solicitors, was awarded Yorkshire's Children’s Event of the Year 2017 by Triathlon England and we hope to make it even better in 2018!
The swim takes place in The Edge, a 25m heated indoor pool and the run is on a closed circuit around the university campus with electronic chip timing, prizes for the top 3 in each age group and a t-shirt for every finisher!
This is a great event for all abilities to get involved in the sport from first timers to athletes who hope to compete for the region (The race is part of the Yorkshire Junior Triathlon Series). To have your result in this race contribute to the Yorkshire Series or to be considered for the Yorkshire IRC Squad, you must have BTF/Home Nations Annual Membership and use your membership number when entering this race. Details on annual membership can be found here https://www.britishtriathlon.org/get-involved/membership/junior-membership
If you are just doing this for a bit of fun or to try out, dont worry, you can purchase day membership for £1 as part of the entry process.
Please take note of your swim distance below as you will need to submit an estimated time when you enter. This makes sure we group swimmers of a similar ability together in the pool
